I've left wigh 10 gb in my hd, almost 300 gb in my hd are occupied by culturally relevant films (in hig deifinition) that in the future (I bielieve, and I'm afraid) won't be so easy to find and thus I am reluctant to delete.

spoiler

Out of curiousity, some of the movies are: Fellini's 8 and a half; Metropolitan by whit stillman; Lust; by Ang Lee; Ice storm by Ang lee; The Dresser by Peter Yates; Another woman, by woody allen;

I cannot right now buy and external HD (that in the long distance I will surely loose in the profoudities of a cupboard), is there any solutions, safe and cheap to keep them somewhere online and made them available to anyone somewhere that is interested to watch them?
Thanks to anyone who will want to help me. Have a nice day!

Find some big school, and ask them if IT have any hdd unused in storage, we replaced all hdd with ssd in a 500 computer parc, so we had plenty of hard drive to spare, they were 500gb but it seems good enough for you, they can probably give them for free if they are cool guys. Of cours use them only as backup, as they are more prone to fail

thanks, I've never thought of it, but the won't never do such things, that would have seen as 'peculato'. Here in Italy where corruption is a major problems that is an hyperlegislation to avoid it. Peculato would be, I believe, in English embezzlement
