| 1413659 | 2016-01-01 02:15:00 | Hi all, I am thinking about using the above as a back up. I did a Google and saw at least one free "Cloud Storage" as available, but it does not appear to come from Microsoft, so to me, entrusting the contents of my H/d might be security wise, a danger Do Microsoft have a similar program for free and/or is it going to be worth it, anyway, I have both an external and an internal ( D ) drive already backing up Effie c |

| 1413661 | 2016-01-01 02:42:00 | Yep, onedrive is built into windows. Its under your name / One Drive. Amounts: Upon signing up for OneDrive, you get 5 GB of storage. If you have Office 365 Get 1 TB of OneDrive cloud storage per user, for up to 5 users. So if you are using the 365 Home / 5 user, basically you have 5TB of storage. The storage amount for free used to be larger, but to many people started abusing it. Microsoft has announced radical changes to its OneDrive cloud storage service, ending unlimited storage for Office 365 users. Free storage is also being decreased from 15GB to 5GB for all users. The reason for the scaling back of storage comes after Microsoft found that a few customers were using up to 75TB of cloud storage from a single account: SERIOUSLY ?? |

| 1413662 | 2016-01-01 03:53:00 | "Cloud" is just marketing-speak for 'somebody elses server' - with the added obfuscation of who it belongs to and where it is... | fred_fish (15241) | ||
| 1413663 | 2016-01-01 18:16:00 | I have used Mozy Home for years and it hasn't let me down yet. There is a, I think, 2GB free version and reasonably priced other versions. Of course there are many other versions | notechyet (4479) | ||
| 1413664 | 2016-01-09 07:14:00 | All our private photos are in iCloud, I bought 200GB storage for $5 a month and at least I know that if we get broken into my photo's and videos will always be saved. Read the iCloud privacy in regards to backing up your private collection. | mark1978 (13845) | ||
