I had Infomaniak for a while, and tried the kdrive, as like you, it was the cheapest cloud drive storage. However I gave up with Infomaniak as in the end they felt a bit, er, fussy in the way they ran it all. It just didn't fill me with confidence.
For me, for all archiving, the simplest solution has always been Backblaze Personal backup. Yes its an extra cost per month, but it will also backup all of your main computer, and any external drives. You can add an encryption key too. The only downside is it being a US company.
I have a 5TB external USB that dupes all my docker stuff as well from my server to my Mac, so it's an all-in-one backup solution for me.
Extrrnal drive would be great if I had another location where I could keep it ;)
