Well, yeah, but a cloud is still better than just two hard drives side by side on my desk (which I rely on primarily, though not exclusively). Not sure about how much redundancy they have, either, though I expect some.
I would not burden my parents - who live across the country - with having to run a server 24/7, incurring electricity and connection costs on them. Besides, they are not technically proficient. Enough that they are keeping a spare backup HDD of mine in a jewelry casket, and I update the contents every time I visit.
Not ideal but alright given the circumstances.
Good idea about asking friends, though - thanks! I'll try that next time I visit (which will be in less than a month from now...)
