A home NAS wouldn't be limited by the speed of his internet but rather than speed of is LAN, which is more than likely not going to be a problem. And multiple drives for a backup sucks.

I was referring to using cloud storage, but I should have made that more clear.

My main computer:

i7 6700k || GTX 1070 || Asus Z170 RGB || C.M. Hyper 212 EVO || 16GB RAM || 256GB NVMe SSD || 500GB SATA SSD || 12TB total HDD || Define R5 Blackout || 850W PSU

More Details Below :)

| CPU Cooler: C.M. Hyper 212 EVO             | RAM: 16GB Kingston Fury 4x4 DDR4 2400MHz         | SSD:  Intel 256GB NVMe SSD & Plextor 500GB SATA SSD

| Hard Drive:  WD 2TB Black, 2TB WD Blue, 8TB WD Red     | Case:  Fractal Design Define R5 Blackout Edition   | PSU:  Be Quiet! Dark Power Pro 11 850W

in other words, if they decide you upload too much crap, they reserve the right to wipe everything.

 

EDIT: also, this one:

 

So is my assumption wrong? And I won't be saving any crap

your assumption in that they'll let you just toss terabytes upon terabyes on there is wrong.

the issue with amazon's unlimited plan is that they dont give you a value, so in essence you dont know.
