Question/Advice Cloud storage

What would be the best , most affordable temporary cloud storage option? My old laptop is dying on me (disk error) and I need to back it up just long enough to be able to afford an external drive with some decent storage on it. I’m big on privacy, I know I may need to pay a little because all the free options I’ve found have a small limit of data and I would rather not have all my data so scattered , I’d rather be able to keep it all in one (safe) place. Money is really tight right now so I’d really love suggestions if anyone has any

I have heard horror stories of restoring the backups so just be careful. May want to go b2

Yeah, I use b2 myself for work and home, but their personal computer backup has gotta be easier for a one time thing, I would think.
