Hello,

Well, I was considering, but have since decided to stick with external
devices, using "the cloud" to back-up my external hard drive. Which
will contain all my music, DVDs and documents - not a house. The
conservative estimate of 2TB is what I will need. But as I said, I've
rather given up on internet based solutions and I'll stick to
hardware.
