I’ve been using a cloud hosting provider under sync.com, great for actively syncing my files between machines I might be using as well if I wished to have any employees’s later on as I was paying close to £30 a month I decided that it was best to self-host my files even if it was just by 10TB Hard Drives that only cost £200 each on Amazon (They are just USB External Ones).

I hope to be able to host my own NAS in the Future once my home office is complete (As we are currently painting and decorating the room) but well transferring all my files from my web-host I’ve been waiting over 7 days for the files to re-sync up to my PC for me to transfer each one into a new drive, it is painful and I can’t wait to be able to remove myself from the service in the near future.

Has anyone else had similar experiences with Cloud-hosting before?

    Moving your files back and forth should be no problem, especially if you have a decent router. Local networks are freaky fast these days, and are often only limited by the read/write speed of your disk.
