Have you considered Dropbox? Another of many “cloud” services that give you x 
freestorage to start, allow incremental expansion for a price as you need it.

For normal use, when I am at home, I think something like this would be a 
decent (2nd or 3rd level) backup process with the possible added advantage of 
access while traveling. But when traveling I am often in places/situations with 
pitiful if any web connections and so cloud-based storage, retrieval, and 
backup is merely a fantasy.

In short, your idea doesn't work in my case, YMMV.
