FREE Unlimited Storage Online
Recently, a very talented designer I worked with lost all the data on her hard drive. She had not backed it up and her files could not be recovered. Countless hours of work and creativity that cannot simply be "re-created" were lost. I back up all files to external hard drives, but backing up your files online is ideal. Imagine you had a fire or other natural disaster, your external drives are just as vulnerable as your computer. When I found this post - I had to share.
| That's pretty impressive considering that ADrive tops out at 50GB and Windows Live SkyDrive at 25GB. Livedrive lets you store and share files like those and other services, but also offers a Windows XP/Vista client that adds a virtual drive to your PC (a Mac version is coming soon). Thus, you can drag, drop, and access files with all the convenience of an external hard drive. |
| While in beta, Livedrive accounts are free. The aforementioned blog is a bit vague on the subject, but apparently you'll be able to keep your free account even after the service goes live in early 2009 (at which time Livedrive will presumably start charging). That's actually a good thing, as I'd have a hard time trusting my files to a startup service that didn't charge. [via Lifehacker] |
