Online storage sites:

Postby Patrick97 » Fri Sep 21, 2007 6:02 am

Hi,
I may have put a similiar thread on this site but this one has more questions.

Does anyone on this site use great online storage site[s] that:

1. have good storage capacity (at least 500 Mb).
2. keeps files forever.
3. ability to publish files (for public web access).

Point 2 is the most imortant item.

Thank you.

2.40 gigahertz Intel Core 2 Duo
2 GB of RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT (256 MB) Video Card
500 GB HDD

You get 1GB of free storage if you're an Eircom customer. Since your from Cork, I'd guess your phone line is with Eircom!
You can also get a premium a/c which has 5GB of storage and includes a free program to do automated backup for your PC for €4.99/mth.
Fáilte Romhat!

While looking for FREE storage online, make sure you read the fine print of using that service. Remember that the privacy and file ownership statement can change within the usual 30 days or effective immediately if the service chooses.

Some FREE storage services allow you to store files and content, but highly frown on illegal software hinding on their network. Things like this get policed on the service providers end. Also, what you have on the FREE service may not be 100% private either. It would mostly be a public search and find like many of the image/photo storage sites on web. Some of these services will allow free storage, but they would sell information to third parties. Just watch what you place into their domain.

Gmail? If you need to store EXEs you're out of luck though.
Just email the items to yourself
nearly up to 3 gigs now.

That will work. Also, just Winzip the exe files. :P
