| 1282019 | 2012-06-18 02:09:00 | They have had some major outages. August and September last year and another problem returning URL's and Aussies had a major outage this year. Personally I would look elsewhere. new Skydrive was launched in April 2012 |

| 1282024 | 2012-06-18 07:22:00 | I use Skydrive myself and never had a problem in all the time its been operating. Mike made the comment "Who can tell these days after MegaUpload. " The way I look at it, some places will be here today gone tomorrow, along with all data. I'd never use any cloud based location as a primary source, only as backups. The chances of Microsofts Skydrive disappearing over night is slim, and even if it were to close for some reason there would always be a good deal of time advised before hand. |

| 1282026 | 2012-06-18 07:30:00 | I use www.box.com for myself and somehow managed to get my account upgraded to 50GB for free! The only problem is you are limited to a max file size of 100MB on the free accounts. There is also doesn't appear to be any official www.box.com software to install on your PC to upload/sync your files so you have to do it via the website. I don't use it all that often so never bothered to look for a solution. |
