Hi everyone,

Long time lurker here. I hope this fits sorry if it doesn't.

I've got loads of TB of hi-res photos at this point and i'm getting a bit nervous about losing it all in a fire. I'm a 3-2 but not -1 of the backup rule. I've been thinking about making a lower-res online last-ditch backup but i have no idea what tools people use for that. The amount is probably too much for me to afford to keep in original size online, it's at least 2 TBs worth of "curated photos".

Say i've got 100 gb of online backup space, is there a good tool people use so you can adapt the end file size and convert all the photos in batches so it'll "fit"?

English isn't my first language so maybe i'm just missing a keyword in my searches.
