Hello, 

I am trying to figure out the best storage and backup solution to keep my photos safe and off my computer harddrive. I currently have a time machine and am curious how others are backing up thier photos and keeping thier computers free of RAW files. I would ideally like to store/ backup my photos on an external harddrive and also to a cloud service.  Looking forward to hearing your set ups!

Well that is what I do. I have a 4 TB drive that holds all of my images and many documents. I have a second 4 TB drive that I back that up to at least once a week or just after a big ingestion of nes images. Lastly I use a cloud service (Backblaze) in case of major catastrophe. I also have a third drive that I use for Time Machine. 

to back up drive 1 to drive 2 I use ChronoSync. 

this system has worked very well for me
