Morning all

Just working out what we need spec wise as a family computer (wondering 
about Mini or iMac). One thing is storage...

We have 100GB in iPhoto, and that'll only increase. I'd prefer all SSD, but 
not a cheap upgrade. Fusion looks good but wondering how future proof it is 
with macOS etc.

Anyhoo...

I'm also wondering about whether it's worth putting all our photos in to 
iCloud, to enjoy them from every device? We already have the 200GB Family 
Plan, so we've enough for now.

Has anybody done this?
Is it recommended?
Does iCloud store the full hi-res version of each photo?

Alternatively, I keep iCloud for our iOS devices and the DSLR shots on the 
Mac can just stay local.

Any thoughts?

And whilst you're kindly reading, any thoughts about Backup? Currently done 
locally to an external HDD. Works fine. But just wondering if it's worth 
heading to a cloud based solution for ease and peace of mind all round? I 
hear good things about BackBlaze, but perhaps a combo of something like 
TimeMachine and DropBox and iCloud Drive is a more economically efficient 
way ahead!?! 

Thanks so much,

Adam
