Recommendations for Cloud Storage

I am looking for a cloud storage solution for my photos and videos.  Some of the files are very large - more than 50gb.  

The solutions available today are either a backup solution or a directory sync solution.

Are there any solutions available, where I can map a drive and copy files directly?  I need more than 1.5 TB.  I've looked at IDrive, One Drive, Google Drive and iCloud.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

-Ted

You could take a look at Amazon Cloud Drive which has unlimited storage
https://www.amazon.co.uk/clouddrive/home

Also, if you use CloudBerry Lab Explorer Pro you can use that to map a drive to you storage in the Cloud.  This can be downloaded from www.cloudberrylab.com

I have an article relating to Cloudberry Lab product here where I reviewed it:
https://www.experts-exchange.com/articles/20139/Review-of-Cloudberry-Explorer-Pro-Linked-with-AWS-Amazon-Web-Services-S3.html

So with a set price per year for unlimited storage of photos and videos you could use the Amazon Cloud Drive and then use Cloudberry Lab Explorer Pro for S3 to create a mapped drive share to your Cloud Drive environment and then simply drag and drop your files across.

Hope this helps,

Cheers,

Stu...

If you think your data is not that confidential that you can go for any public cloud storage provider or else you can try making your private cloud by putting your data on your server using any third part software.
