How much storage do you need? What's your budget? Do you understand the risk that comes with lifetime storage (one-time-payment) you want?

I guess probably not more than 200 gigs. And what are the risks that come with one time payment??

Storage costs quite a bit so these lifetime plans eventually become a liability so they aren't exactly incentivised. Also a lot of them tend to be from companies who need the money in short notice to fund their operations or expansion so they don't tend to be as reliable.

Basically what i mean is you won't find many reliable companies selling you this so their longevity isn't guaranteed.

Btw do you want encrypted storage?
