 I need to find a place where I can backup 500+GB of files. This is not a web host - most web hosts will not allow you to "archive" files unless they are accessible online. The site needs to be secure, support FTP and have robust bandwidth (ex: if I need to use FTP to download some of the archived files, this will be a heavy bandwidth hit).   It also needs to be simple to use because  a few of the people accessing the files are not tech literate. I need to be able to set up a separate  ftp log in for these users - preferably more than one. I do not want to use a proprietary app to download and upload files  because users will be using different platforms

Last, I need this to be a site that will not blink at me storing fan related audio, video or document files.  And one that is not run by one or two people  - this needs to be reliable for the next 5 years.

Cost: I can afford up to $10 per month. I have a box.com account, but I am still uncomfortable storing fan related files in these amounts there. Plus, they charge $45 a month for their 500+GB accounts.

That said, I've never had an issue with Dropbox. Their 'share a file' link will allow you to set an expiration date on the file you choose to share.
