We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Onedrive for my documents but that is only up to 1 TB, and more for convenience as i have them available everywhere on all devices.
Pictures in the locker at work. = 8TB drive
HDDs in my shed for Movies and Series
Once my shed is rebuild (bricks and mortar), even the Pictures will go there.
The point of offsite is: How far do you want to go? If mayor wildfires, floodings, hurricanes and tornadoes aren't a thing. Or if you build houses that are not made of toothpicks where you live. 25m away, in a separate building is more than sufficient imo.
you have close to 8tb worth of pictures? well i guess we are in r/Datahoarder
Around 4TB
I take a lot of pictures and tend to keep all the RAW files that are not absolute garbage or test shots. @40-50MB per piece, It goes pretty quick.
that like 100k pictures damn
