What Is The Maximum Space You Can Get in Free Cloud Storage?

Is Google drive still the best option of 15gb free?
Does any other company provide more than 15gb?

      Limited to 500 files though so not great for things like photos.

      • Put them all into a few zip files.

  • i got 240GB for free for life on onedrive (dont ask i forgot how/why, could be combination of few promotions).

    • I think most likely you would have gotten it from this deal: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/333003

      I also still have it, somehow Onedrive or Telstra must have forgotten to expire the allowance or something.

      • Maybe not worth the admin costs of figuring out how to remove it. Microsoft gives you 6TB of storage all up for $100 a year. 10 years from now you'll probably get 60TB, then 600TB, then 6PB.

  • Amazon Prime US, unlimited storage (but will need VPN) ;)

      And free Prime somehow.

      • With any of their Fire devices from Amazon US …

    What do plan to do with the storage?

    Are you backing up files - lots of uploading, but you'll hopefully rarely need to download?

    Some non-free cloud storage services are ridiculously cheap… right now I backup to AWS in Australia and Backblaze (yes, I know backblaze uses AWS too) - After a couple of years of running regular incremental backups, my monthly AWS bill is $AU0.16 - I'm yet to pay a cent for my backblaze usage.

  • Actually that is fair. Rarely need to download. How do you do the AWS backup and how many GB do you roughly have?

    • There are a few software products that will do backups to different cloud providers. I settled on Duplicati has having the right balance of provider support and functionality for me.

      Using AWS there's a fair amount of assumed technical knowledge (particularly on the security side if you use the account for other stuff)… Backblaze is a bit more user friendly in that regard.

      Right now the AWS s3 bucket is sitting at just under 10GB… I started with critical, can't afford to lose stuff. I'm not a huge shutterbug, so basically financial and other personal stuff, and a good dose of photos.

      • Thanks. You mean 100gb?
