I fortunately/unfortunately do not need to concern myself with cloud image storage. By the time I downloaded an image MS would likely have released two newer iterations of the OS!
Okay, that I've done with OneDrive for years.
Re: DNS server?
<<<I've had zero issues with 1.1.1.1 and use Google as my fall over DNS backup (which so far hasn't been necessary, famous last words...)>>
I know zip about this other than some servers are a lot quicker than others. And, if you don't know what you're doing (me), best to leave well enough alone.
That said, when DNS Speed Test (DNS Speed Test to Check DNS Hosting Speed | UltraTools) asks for the domain address, what domain are they talking about? Your ISP?
If you have DNS with your ISP and they keep logs then there's the potential for them to track your web activity, and by implication anyone else if their data got hacked.
1.1.1.1 and Google only keep logs for 24/48 hours and do DNS over HTTPS/TLS (encrypted), but of course with Google having such a strong presence in the world of IT then you might not want them being your primary DNS provider either, so for me they are the back up.
Speed whilst nice to have isn't the primary objective here, privacy/security is. But as with everything else it is never 100%.
