On point 2, you can build a 100 TB "NAS" with an 8 drive chassis and 8 of the new 20 TB drives. Pricing should be under 5 or 6k USD unless you go crazy on the server. That should give enough extra to allow for a good bit of RAID p

Indeed, for a while with Google there have been nominal ingress quota limits of (iirc) 750 GB per day. It seems that in the context of research universities there may be a mismatch in communication and use of "unlimited". Google s

It's not quite the same as a VPN, but in addition to Tailscale and some of the alternatives suggested in other comments, it may be worth looking at using HTTPS client certificates. Done right, you get a pretty simple second line of def
