Get 50GB of Storage For Free

I have tried so many online backup services, and none of them have ever given me 50GB for free. The most I've ever received was 25GB for free from a great service called Streamload. Perhaps this new startup will start a trend for online storage. As time goes by, storage gets cheaper, and I think we will find many more services starting to offer more storage for free with even more storage for a premium price.

The new kid on the block is a company called ADrive. The host serves up a whopping 50GB of storage for free, with the only bandwidth limitations being in the size of the files you can upload, which are capped at a reasonable 2GB. The free "beta" accounts are supplemented with ads (hence the AD in the name), which show up on the top and bottom of your file explorer.

Although lacking the beauty of web2.0-styled layouts like Box.net and others, ADrive works, and works well. ADrive lets you arrange whatever you'd uploaded into directories to help maintain organization. It also doesn't require any special software to upload or download your files. Not to mention, you wont find much of a drag on your network like some others I have used.

Check it out. It never hurts to have backups at multiple places. Who know what might happen...
