There are things like 321 back up rules out there might seem far fetched for regular home. But the least to do is have duplicates copies on two different drives / store medium. ( not raid, that's not back up )

Would this work in a Synology 220+?
I already have a WD Elements 12TB that I plan to shuck. Is it a bad idea to combine these two?

I think you're off by a factor of 1000: 20 members x 100 photos x 2mb is 4GB, which would make this drive good for almost 4000 years.

Technically it is proper for family photos but it might be much too big,
Plus, HDDs are infamous for when they die they die and you're SOL with the data that it contained.
This would be perfect as a back up !!

16tb is basically overkill for everything except for professional or serious amateur applications. I'm a data scientist that works with images and my biggest hobby dataset isn't even 1tb... and it's already a ****ton of images. You'd have to be really seriously into editing home movies or something to use this.
