NAS Vs Online Cloud
I would personally do both if you can, using something like Cryptomator or CryptSync to encrypt the cloud copy before it leaves your network.

How to ensure file integrity?
Now, onto files backup - if you value your data, don't make just one backup copy, make two or three. Also, I'd recommend using software that will make snapshots and you could restore whichever version you need. I am using zpaqfranz for few years now, it is command line software but you can make batch file and update the archive when needed - it will add only new and changed files, so only first backup will last long.

Which compression algorithm/file type for backups?
ZPAQ1 is great, it supports incremental backups and compression algorithm is really good even on already compressed data like images. zpaqfranz2 is a fork that adds more advanced checksumming algorithms. It's also worth looking into.

WINRAR - I have 20GB RAR file that I update daily. Issue is, whenever I want to add new file to that archive, it has to update all of those files that are pre-existing, it lasts just as long as it took it to create that 20GB archive. Is there a way to update archive without updating entire archive?
For best results I recommend the compatible fork with the latest advancements: https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz
