OT: Backing up cloud storage

[MoobyCow]

Has anyone moved the bulk of their personal files to the cloud? Is anyone using a service to backup their cloud storage (Google drive, OneDrive, etc)?

I'm thinking of moving most of my personal storage completely online, but I don't like the idea of any one company having the only copy (and I don't necessarily want to sync it all back to my local PC). I was able to find a service that does it, Cloudally, but it's a bit expensive compared to most personal backup solutions.

There's also CloudHQ, which syncs between services (then I would need to pay for two online services and sync them).

Also, I'm not sure how well online only works for shared storage. My wife and I share a lot of files, and we'd want one place for all of them, so do we just sign in with a single shared account, or setup multiple accounts with a shared folder structure?

Me and my wife both use one drive for our pic and short videos. I have it synced to our phones and is all under one account even though admittedly it has stopped working on her phone for some reason and I need to fix it. I also use an external hard drive to back up the cloud. Lord knows what will still be around in 50 years.

You get free one drive with purchase of office 365. Amazon has a pretty good deal too with the purchase of prime you get their cloud.

I have been using carbonate for a number of years. Easy set up. Runs in the background. I have a colleague that uses sugarsync, she says it's about the same. If I were signing up now, I would go with Google drive since it use it for my email and calendar also. Cost is about the same for all of them.

I use both OneDrive and Carbonite, as well as use a 6TB RAID network drive with automatic full local drive backups, as primary storage / redundancy. Also keep some stuff in Dropbox. I don't want / can't afford to have a single point of failure with my business/personal data.
