I've had a similar issue for a while, with bird and insect photography.
I added two large SATA drives to my desktop, then invested in a 4 Tb
and a 2  TB NAS. (Dlink and WD MYCloud). I tried Acronis Cloud Backup,
but it's a bit expensive ('Though reliable) for me. Google Drive has
been the least costly, at $10.00/ month for 1 TB. They also offer auto
backup. I also have a Flickr account (1 TB free) and a website, which
is a backup as well.
