A lot of the time, I'm downloading a list of movies while I am sleeping. That's when I do most of my downloading. I use download helper. Sometimes it can download for several hours. There are times when I nap and when I wake up, it is still downloading. ;-) I do the same when I leave to go to town too. > > >> Uploading slows my surfing to almost a dead stop.

While I wouldn't want to lose some of it, it also would be a lot of trouble given the large volume of data. I'd much prefer something local and much faster. Now for my camera pics, that could be a option. Much less data and lots more important too. I'm assuming this is what you are talking about? https://aws.amazon.com/s3/ I'm trying to figure out just how much this would cost here. o_O Just for my pics tho.
