Hi guys! Need some help designing a backup plan for a friend photographer.

So currently he has the most common "backup" plan I've seen people use. A bunch of External USB HDs. And some of the photos are stored in multiple clouds to avoid paying premium (onedrive, google drive, etc).

He's not a tech-tard but also not that tech-savvy. We just started building a N100 NAS for him with a few 6TB WD Reds, but I'm not sure on the Cloud solution for him.

I've used Kopia and showed it to him on how to use it after we set it up. But the cost of a B2 storage from BlackBlaze is 6usd per TB a month, and a subscription from Sync.com is 5usd per TB. In this case with the ease-of-use for him, I'm not sure if I should recommend going Open Source instead of using Sync.

So, should I help him set up Kopia with a B2 storage or just get a subscription of Sync.com?
