Personal local NAS (Network attached storage).
Or install Tailscale on your home computer if it's always on.
I'm a Linux nerd but I use Tailscale just because of how incredibly easy, secure, and reliable it is. And it's free obviously.
Can access your files anywhere from basically any device. It essentially just lets you have access securely to any of your devices as if they were sitting on the same home network.
I got rid of cloud storage and just run a NAS with unRAID (paid but not a subscription. But worth every penny imo) There are alternatives that are free though.
Thinking about truenas rn
Only downside is their docs try to talk me into buying like actually good hardware like sas controllers and shit

Yeah. The expensive hardware raid setups are just too much money and too much work. I like the dual parity and variable drive size unRAID uses. Don't have to worry about drive size differences.
You don't get increased write speeds like some raid setups would have. But a cache drive and a scheduled mover make it even faster. I setup a 10G direct connection from my NAS to my main computer and it's awesome for video editing.
I could see why you'd use a hardware raid if you have like 20 users or something all writing video. But I'm never going to fill a 2TB cache drive in a single day before it can move them to the array while I sleep.
