I use flash drive. Every single byte of information related to my work or fun is stored in my pen drive. I do not store anything in my hard drive.
Though this gives me a sense of relief from the fear of hard disc crash, I am still afraid the same might happen to pen drives too. Does anyone know a pen drive hat can last 10 years or more?
The alternative storage solution is online storage facilities. When I read about Amazon's S3 web service, I was elated because the service will be dependable as it is provided by Amazon.
"Amazon S3 provides a simple web services interface that can be used to store and retrieve any amount of data, at any time, from anywhere on the web."-Amazon S3
When I opened it in my browser, I saw that this service is made available only to those living in the U.S. and the Europe.
Too bad!

Free online file storage by Microsoft.
Microsoft is offering us free on line file storage. If you have Hotmail account and if it is active, you can start uploading the files immediately.
Go to Skydrive.live.com for this. You are given 5 GB space. You can store word documents, music files, pictures and video clips.
You can store your files exclusively for your access at anytime from anywhere in the world.
You can store and give permission to a few designated persons to access your files.
You can also store and share the files with anyone in the world.
The main advantage for this free online storage is you can do away with portable hard drives like pen drives. Also the storage is offered by none other than Microsoft which means it is safe and secure.
I have started using this space and it is just a breeze.

Use RoamDrive to store files.
Without sending an email attached with your important files, you can store them using your free email provided by Google and Yahoo.
Yahoo is giving unlimited email account. Gmail is giving 2GB. And we are not using even 10% of it. So why not utilize that free space to store our files? We can save a lot of money in this way. No need for a flash drive any more.
Link your web email to Roam Drive.
Just drag and drop your files, pictures and videos on your Roam Drive account and access them anywhere in the world.
At present they are supporting Hotmail and Gmail. This is a free offer.
Thank you Silki.
