A while ago before I fully retired from Oracle DBA work and evening teaching I was worried about loosing files. I looked at remote or cloud sites and I was not happy with any of them. I went to see the little old Vietnamese lady who runs the small computer store locally and she recommended I do what they did. So I bought a Western Digital 10TB drive and plugged it into a docking station that has place for 2 drives and 3 additional USB connectors. Software came with the dock station and I do a nightly backup. Last year I added a second 10TB drive so now I am set pretty much for even.

At midnight I turn off the LAN connection so there is no chance of intruders and it comes back on at 6:00AM. So far it has been pretty much fail safe and very little chance of stolen files.
