If so, is it any good?

422223 2006-01-18 20:41:00 I don't know what you plan to use it for (I presume you mean: xmailharddrive.com), but if you need lots of space the 20MB file size limit may be a problem:


Currently the max file upload size is 20mb however as we gain more sponsors we will remove the upload limit, and you'll be able to upload much much larger files!

422224 2006-01-18 21:47:00 They say you can use it to drag and drop files into your Gmail account. Dulouz (7243)
422225 2006-01-19 05:43:00 So you are going to use it to back up data? Wouldn't it just be quicker to buy a USB flash drive or use a DVD to make backups. Remember that with a 128k upstream bandwidth limit on broadband connections, uploading large files to a server is going to take quite a long time. :) maccrazy (6741)

I have never heard of Xmail hard drive. On the other hand, I have heard of Gmail drive (www.viksoe.dk)

Have you tried out Streamload (http://www.streamload.com) yet? The free version does not limit you the amount of data that can be stored. The down side is that you are only allowed 100MB of download per month, as well as you can't download files that are more than 10MB. For some, it might be useful tool for backing up data.

Cheers :)

Last time i used the "free" account (some years ago), i backed up some stuff, then 6months later they told me they are stopping their service and if i wanted to use my account again i had to pay for it.
