How to use the free Stockage options Google, iCloud ect?

My daughter just received a Asus Notebook running Windows 10… It only a 32Gb SSD so I suppose she'll have to use the free stockage Systems proposed by google, windows Apple ect. As with all kid's she takes hundreds of photo's on her iphone which until now she downloaded onto her her old laptop which has 500 gb of HD and is nearly full. At 65 I could just about get my head around downloading onto a HD but with the new virtual stuff I'm lost…

You can use " cloud " storage ( cloud is a fancy word for " off site " storage )… You take photos / type letters what ever and you store them on another hard drive somewhere…
But also, that little notebook has usb ports, you can also consider a usb stick…

you just plug it in when you need to store stuff on it… And " safely " unplug when you don't need it…
