Hey everyone

I'm looking for a way to manage a photo collection (my Google Photos is sitting at about 200 GB right now and just keeps growing) — not really looking for a backup solution, more like a primary storage setup. It would be pretty ideal if I could access everything directly from my mobile devices like an iPad or iPhone, though I guess that isn't a total dealbreaker. A NAS seems like the logical move here, but there's a bit of a catch—I don't have physical access to the router, so I'd have to set everything up strictly over Wi-Fi. Does anyone know if there's a NAS device out there that can be configured entirely via wireless? If so, maybe you could suggest a specific model. For context, I'm running OS X Mavericks. Thanks for any help. Best, Ivan

And you can definitely stumble upon certain models, like this one for instance:

The thing is—they just don't hit the same performance levels as an Ethernet-based NAS—so if you aren't exactly sweating the data transfer speeds...

Flickr hooks you up with a full terabyte of cloud storage, so you can pull up your photos from pretty much any laptop or phone as long as you’re online.

Honestly, whether it's Google or OneDrive, they’re all pretty solid options if that's what you need.
The best part is you don't have to sweat the technical stuff... they handle all the backup heavy lifting for you.
