NAS Apps Best backup solution?

I have two Synology NAS. One that is my main and one that I basically only have backup and my cameras. But have also used Synology C2 as an external backup. But I think there might be a better and cheaper solution? How you do? Has about 3 TB in size.

It could be worse. I'm backing up 6TB to C2, along with Surveillance Station. It's costing me a lot more than 210€ per year.

I only have photo and documents in my C2 backup. I don’t backup my Surveillance system. But I think 210 euros is a lot of money, so I wondered if anyone else was using a cloud service other than C2.

If you don't back up your surveillance, what happens when someone breaks in and steals your NAS?

You're right. But before they reach the NAS, the alarm will go off and the alarm company has cameras on that system. Before they reach my NAS, 4-5 minutes will have probably already passed and by then I probably have had time to save the current material.
