ADrive: Big Bucket of Free Storage

ScreenshotThere’s another way to compete in online file storage besides offering unique features: just offer a lot of storage. That’s the plan of ADrive, a new entrant in the market (currently in beta) giving out a whopping 50GB of online storage for free. You can upload files, arrange them in folders, download them, and create public links so you can share them with others.

There are a few minor catches to the plan: their required registration includes your full address and phone number, their uploader is a java tool, and they reserve the right to share metadata about your files with partners – which implies context-sensitive advertising in the future. But if you need somewhere to park a bunch of data online without paying for it, the size here is hard to beat.
