Creating a home cloud storage network? (self.techsupport)

submitted 4 months ago by Nimbletoes to c/[email protected]

Hello! I am interested in creating my own cloud storage network, but I have to idea how to even start it. It's just for myself, mainly pictures and videos. Ideally what I would like to do is be able to manually and/or automatically upload pictures and videos from my phone to my home cloud storage. I have Xfinity as my service provider. What is the cheapest and simplest way to achieve this?

Ideally you have backups of backups, right? Like putting an SD card in your phone, or a second HDD in your computer. Then the "cloud" part...my recommendation, considering you asked for simplest, is a NAS. Get a user-friendly one with built in apps that can do what you're asking, and you shouldn't have issues
