No problem - I have an Office 365 subscription, which comes with
far more storage than I will fill. It took a while to get the
initial data uploaded, but updates are much more manageable.
You actually trust Microsoft with all your data?
I checked on whether Office 365 would do what I want and it turned out
that if I couldn't get an internet connection, I had no access to my
data. The same with Outlook.com. So I paid for a decent system that
keeps all my data local and secure, unless I deliberately let it out.
Even my phone doesn't use the cloud for anything even remotely private.
I just synchronise my computer with a network attached HD or another
computer every time I close down, and haven't lost any data due to
hardware failure in 30 years or so. In fact, my system makes it almost
impossible to *deliberately* lose any data, as it gets restored the next
time my sync software connects to a copy anywhere on the network.
