i'm at 86571, but it *is* going down, s l o w l y . . .

 

[Unheard]

Did anyone ever get any space? Mine slowed to a crawl and I'm 95k out still.

 

[esquared]

It's moving.

I am at 46626 now. 11 days and I moved up 33K places.

Now at 30126. 9 more days to move up 16.5K


Two + weeks at that rate of 1800/day.

I'm now at 46350, getting there slowly.

 

[HotShotGG]

Sorry, what? How does this work? Sorry, I'm new to this.

I've uploaded ~78gb so far. Seems to work fine. Haven't tried any file recovery yet though.

ive got my 100gb. started uploading a truecrypt drive (50gb) then got annoyed by the lack of ability to upload via web browser. uninstalled it.
I dont know what it has to 'analyse' before uploading and I was also annoyed that it was recreating my whole folder structure and drive letter while saving on the cloud.

 

[Anubis]

humm 111K people in front of me. this might take a while

 

[esquared]

18,120. 7 days to move up 12K.

Down to 6120. :biggrin:

 

[spinejam]

They've cranked-up the activation speed for sure. My hotmail and gmail accounts just went live today --- yeah, I signed-up three times.

 

[compman25]

Another 6K drop.

Down to 6120. :biggrin:

Looks like tomorrow for me.

It appears that they are moving things along now.

I'll stick with SkyDrive, by a known corporation. Also Google Drive is now available.

Shouldn't be taking so long to setup online storage. Sure, 100GB sounds (especially for $0) fantastic, however there's probably going to be a catch somewhere.

Worse yet, who knows how long they'll be around?

2TB HDD's are often on sale at Newegg for $99 to $119, I prefer to keep things on the ground. The only things that I have in cloud storage (SkyDrive) is photos that I have several backup copies of, for posting/emailing when needed.

Cloud storage is OK, however it's still best to have it on local media.

For backup, it's best to have it in more places.

For everyday usage, depending on the person, the cloud can be much better than local drives. Particularly if you use mobile devices or devices on different networks.

There is an android app for zoolz, though the reviews look interesting.

Down to 120.

No movement at all in nearly 5 days.

Still stuck at 120.
