Cloud Storage

Anyone got any recommendations?

I need cheap and enough space to store an initial minimum of 60gb with, no doubt, more to follow.

I've got stuff backed up - just need another option in the event of house fire, theft, etc. Not really that fussed about security - don't care if anyone nicks my photos or music!

Thanks.

Dropbox is good. But google drive might be ok for you?

If it's just online backup rather than cloud drive access, I'd recommend crashplan.

I use dropbox ... easy and convenient

Google drive is convenient especially if you have a google email address.

Don't store any racy pics of you, your Mrs and/or the girlfriend on it though... ;0)

What I do is have a couple of USB sticks and I keep a copy on them and leave one at my Dad's house. Every couple of weeks I swap the one he has with another one that is more up to date.

I have several backups at home but this is just to guard against having everything stolen or burned down in a fire. Realistically it would take a theft as most hard disks can retain a lot of data in the event of a fire - assuming the house isn't burned to the ground, which in this day and age is unlikely.

Okay Guys, thanks v much for your input, much appreciated. I'll have a browse round at your recommendations.

I do sometimes use Chrome/gmail so it seems I already have a google drive account! Doh! :-)
