![]() parents… I originally put Dad onto OneDrive without realising that they scaled the free 15Gb base storage down to 5Gb and got rid of the Camera Roll bonus a few years back.Short term wise, she's in no hurry but long term she'll need something to upload her photos to. partner… will just wait for me to get a MS 365 Family subscription.Might make getting MS 365 Family more viable now. Might chat to my bro to see if he needs more cloud storage. I have Office 2016 so am not in a hurry for MS 365 to use office apps. I'm sure there's a lot of unneeded stuff on there. I'll keep an eye out for MS 365 Family to be discounted to the $90 mark but also give cleaning up my OneDrive account a go. for myself… I'll sign up to the $3/mth option for the short term just to keep my back ups to the cloud going.At this rate, 1Tb will last me just over 6yrs but it's not likely that my usage will continue once the pug gets older (maybe).

Only impacts on my partner and I if I discontinue the service.Ĭons: May not be enough storage to last us in the long run. Pros: Cheaper ongoing costs at only ~$44/yr. Assuming disabling Camera Roll back up in OneDrive does not lose me half of my current storage (I signed up when it was 15Gb free OneDrive storage + 15Gb additional Camera Roll bonus), disable the camera roll back up in OneDrive and switch to Google Drive… probably the 200Gb option for both my partner and I. Binds me to continuing the service going forward if my partner and parents are using the service too. My parents don't really need cloud storage urgently but my partner could do with it. Eventually gets me the latest version of Office… useful when Office 2016 gets a bit old.Ĭons: Only gets me extra storage for now. Pros: Lower initial outlay but eventually results in MS 365 Family. Expand to the Family plan when that is on sale. Sign up to $3/mth to expand my storage by 100Gb. Pros: Gets me onto a longterm viable cloud storage solution as well as longterm Office solution now and also gets my family/partner the service too.Ĭons: High initial cost.
