By the way, you can choose dual redundancy for the NAS. That way two drives can fail at the same time and the data is still safe.

What’s the cost of cloud storage per TB? What service are you using?

I chose 1 drive redundancy because I figured the probability of two HDD failures within a short time was lower than the whole NAS going kabang. But I could be mistaken.
