Guide to free cloud storage How to find the best free online storage

  1. I would advice you to backup your files on another harddrive external or internal, which is a lot faster process of saving your backup files. Storing files on the web is another option but surely it will take time for you to finish doing so. If you still insist, try using g-mail as your backup storage.

  2. If you have Hotmail, then you would automatically have a handy 25 GB of free storage. Just hit SkyDrive.

  3. “Offsite” storage is a good idea, but ‘cloud’ storage has serious risk.

    For max security, data should be encrypted before sending.
    Use a solid utility for this phase and practice a couple of times with some nondescript file to master the entire process.
    That would be: file encrypt> upload>download> decrypt.
    Once proficient, go ahead with the more delicate file work.
    [AxCrypt is an easy to use file encryption program. It integrates directly with Windows Explorer, enabling encryption, decryption, viewing and editing of any file with just a few clicks of the mouse. AxCrypt uses 128-bit AES encryption and SHA-1…”etc. Freeware. http://www.snapfiles.com/Freeware/security/fwencrypt.html
