Asking here to confirm my understanding. Trying to determine if an external hard drive is a possible solution if:

  1. I am trying to avoid monthly cloud subscription fees
  2. I don’t access the data often, just need somewhere for it to go since it exceeds local storage capacity, but would like to access it freely if needed

Also, after searching I noticed a lot of emphasis on backing up external hard drives. Can this be done without a monthly subscription?
