The storage is all done on your own PC.

Correct - storage can be done on a PC or a server system - https://support.diode.io/article/vr156n18cf-is-diodedrive-un.... I personally run some of my personal Zones with a raspberry pi connected to a USB drive as an always-on backup. Enterprise implementations would use whatever server (or private or even public cloud) based storage is appropriate for them.

Great feedback and thoughts.

Technically it is, as you can keep expanding your own storage. Compared to a cloud storage service that has hard limits on space usage.
