Backblaze B2 is $5/TB-month. It only takes me about a month to upload 2TB at crappy ~20mbps cable upstream. Movers moved the physical servers and hard disks about 9 years ago when I moved; they all spun up just fine at the other end. It sounds more convenient to insure(!) and ship most of the hardware once the data on them is backed up. You're likely not going to be able to take multiple laptops with LiIon batteries on a plane, baggage or carry-on. EDIT: I have flown with two laptops in the same carry-on without problems, so it probably depends on exactly how many you need to bring.
