ADrive: Big Bucket of Free Storage

There’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.

Check out http://www.mybloop.com/…Unlimited storage (yes, no limits!)
It appears that ADrive doesn’t allow PUBLIC DOWNLOAD, which is what i really need. However, MYBLOOP does have that feature. So thanks Zia for the tips, and WWD for the suggestion ^_^
wrong they allow public downloads
i just sign in adrive rocks
I stumbled upon ADrive in Dec of 2007. It has impressed me everyday. I have a lot of data that I need stored away from my computer. 50GB is more than enough plus I just noticed that they are about to offer more storage.
I am wondering if there is something out there that works like google docs for sharing?
Ideally, I would like to be able to make documents and so on available as links to clients/staff etc, so when they lose them, I can just email a link direct from the share, rather than have to rewrite the invoice or whatever because I left it at home (some stuff still not migrated onto the “cloud”…)
Dear Friends could you please help me how to find direct links in adrive please email me acweligamage@yahoo.com
Adrive does provide public access of your files, you can simply select the ones you want to share and click on the share button.
The one I want is the API access using PHP, any one knows whether it supports or not?
Thanks
Does anyone know how to get a direct link for using a download manager like IDM from adrive??
I prefer http://www.myotherdrive.com for online backup and file sharing. Unlike sites that offer free space that is not really free (expires, free for 14 days, etc.) they offer 5GB free permanent space. They are the Mozy of backup and the box.net of file sharing all in one. And they run on a Mac or PC.
