Choose a CDN for WordPress?

Goodnight.
There is WordPress MU (Multi Site), it has sub-sites (sub-sites), they have all sorts of media files. There is not enough space for them on the server.
The task is to store these media files somewhere so as not to take up space on the server, but so that everything is automatic (uploaded an image through the Media Library in the WP admin panel - the file itself was uploaded to the CDN).
Probably, I need a CDN, but which does not just give faster (this is not critical), but on which these files are stored. I plan to use the W3 Total Cache plugin for this, but I'm not sure that it will NOT save copies of files on my own server.
Thank you in advance for your information and advice…
PS- visitors to the site are expected to come from Russia.

The principle of operation of mass CDNs is that they always give back the data that is stored on your server.
This is necessary for cases when the flow of traffic requests exceeds the capabilities of your server.
So CDN is not what you need.
If you need the data to be stored somewhere outside - you can look at Amazon S3 for example
aws.amazon.com/s3 Attach direct access to it docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/WebsiteHos... and from above, to save traffic, fasten a CDN already.
Keep in mind that the prices for this entertainment are not very cheap, it is guaranteed to be much more expensive than just another dedicated server.
You did not write specific load figures, but look at, for example,en.hetzner.com/hosting/produkte_rootserver/sx60
Is 8TB not enough for you? It seems to me that changing the server to a more powerful one is clearly a simpler and cheaper solution.

I read and read and can't find a simple solution...
All I need is a place where media files will be stored cheaply, unlimited (or cheap) traffic, and a WP plugin (which I set up and forgot). At the same time, these files would not be stored on my server, respectively.
Isn't there such a thing??
