    Sounds like you're talking about a media server or similar. I recently bought a couple of 8TB Seagate Barracuda 3.5" SATA spinning rust drives for that very purpose. Slap them in an unused tower or something, or
    even connect them via a USB3-to-SATA adapter to an active computer, and let it rip. It's not "cloud" storage, but it's a safety copy. Getting that much capacity in the cloud would indeed be expensive, irregardless
    of connection speed or bandwidth caps. Works for me.

    Combined storage - I have a Synology NAS that has the ability to back up
    to the cloud. That Synology backs up my Proxmox server and VMs, then for
    media I have them on a local hard disk. That's mirrored to the Synology,
    which backs it up to an external drive. If I lose my house, I'll lose my
    data - but that would be the least of my worries... :(

    I was just walking along behind this bull, and now I think I stepped in
    something.

    That seems to happen a lot these days. ;)

    Whoops, I've dung it again...

    :D

    Just want to confirm before I wipe ArakNet.

    Is everyone else removing it from their systems since there seems to be no r
    esponse?


    It's dead. I removed it from the Diamond Mine Online a few weeks ago. From what I've seen, it isn't coming back.

    I added Metronet and Hobbynet as replacements. May add a few more eventually.
