IDrive has one of the best deals around: $79.40 per year for 5TB, meaning it's cheaper per GB than Proton Drive Plus while offering 25 times the storage space. Microsoft charges $99.99 per year for Microsoft 365 Family, which in addition to offering 1TB of storage each to 6 users-for a total of 6TB-also includes office apps like Word, Excel, and Outlook. Apple iCloud also charges $9.99 per month for 2TB of storage.
