  > Total cost for managing all my files ever: $65-$75 a month. Lowest Newegg price for 1T external USB hd (2014-01-28): 69.99. Buy one 1T USB drive from Newegg every 2 months (half the cost of $75/month). Backup Windows 1T drive to each in turn. After 1 year, have seven redundant copies of the data (1T drive in Windows machine, plus six redundant external HD copies, if each drive is refreshed every 2 months to include the full dataset at that time). Half the cost per month (69.99/2 months vs. 75/month).
