Re: Online storage
How much storage do you need? Mail.ru will give you 500Gb but I wouldn't trust it for sensitive info.

Have a look at GOOGLE.

For instance, there are - Google Drive: 15GB free, and Google Photos has unlimited free photo storage for photos of 16 megapixels or less, or videos of 1080p or less OneDrive: 5GB free (1TB for students)(if you subscribe to Office365, you get 1TB free iCloud: 5GB free Dropbox: 2GB free, plus up to 16GB extra Amazon Drive: 5GB + unlimited photos with Prime Box: 10GB free Flickr: 1TB free for any resolution photos If you're a BT Broadband customer, there are various options, depending on your package (5GB, 100GB, or 500GB) |

So I have a friend who uses it for purposes of not having all his stuff marketed everywhere (like with Gmail) and I need to ask him about it but like me, he uses Protonmail. This is their site: https://protonmail.com/ Now, they advertise it as end to end encryption: Quote:
Now I believe full well that if it comes down to it (and it becomes a security risk) government's around the world will take them at their word when they say: Quote:
This is their OS crypto system - I assume that they would leave it as informative as it is (to the public) were it not truthful: Quote:
https://protonmail.com/blog/protonmail-open-source/ Now they do have some errors on their site (and I will point them out to their own site some point soon) but it does look to be one of the most secure...though it is mail first, then storage / cloud. It comes at a cost, though: https://protonmail.com/pricing This is by far the most expensive webmail / email client / developer that I have ever come across. Now the cheapest paid plan starts at 50 bucks a year in the respective currency and there are limits on how much mail you can send / how many labels you can have etc - much less than ad based mail. There is a VPN option but that is at the higher ends of the the plans which does get very costly. At 30 a month and even having the option to buy more it will dent your wallet, some. It is based in Geneva and that is where I will be going in the next few days so I might ask about their system but truth be told I am thinking that it does seem to come at a very steep cost. I'll ask my friend what he does in regards to it as he is a highly qualified professional who uses it, for work purposes and I doubt that he would be able to survive on 500 MB alone (free level). For security I would rate their mail, storage and domain service as number 1. Cost wise though, it is the most expensive I know and even then I wouldn't know that much more about it and would advise asking Paul or someone who is an expert in encryption when it comes to matters of security. Hope that helps, some. :) |

Re: Online storage
Keep non photos on Google Photos?
|
Re: Online storage
I think Hugh means keep photos on Google Photos and other files on Google Drive.
|
Re: Online storage
I use Amazon S3 & Glacier.
Neither are free, but they are secure, and not overly expensive. I have much larger amounts of data than 15-20GB though (about 100x more). |
Re: Online storage
If you need alot of space for photos 1TB of free storage with Flickr is nice.

Re: Online storage
I have various online storage accounts, all free.
Samsung - 15GB (free with phone/tablet) Google Drive - 15GB One Drive - 30GB (free with Xbox Live) (1TB for £60 a year or 5TB for £80 a year) Dropbox - 2GB Amazon - unlimited for phones (free with prime) - 5GB for files & Videos |

If you have a Samsung you should be able to get 100GB extra free on Onedrive. You mean photos unlimited on Amazon. |
Re: Online storage
I think large file uploads are out of the question with the speeds Virgin give on uploads.
