Dropbox! It is wonderful, also syncs to your computer its amazing! Got to try it.

Also has an android and ios app. Start off at like 2gb, but you can easily get another 2gb free. even make a second account. Its worth it.

Also if you want just more space try : https://drive.google.com/start#home
Google drive
OR
You could try this have not tried it myself. http://www.zippyshare.com/

On top of this, here is an example of the website version of one of my folders in dropbox.

If trust is your concern I would think a external hard drive in your position and control would be the most trust worthy. Who will watch over your belonging better than you.

Layback Bear i guess your right

You can sync it to the cloud with MS Skydrive which offers 7gb free storage with each Windows Live ID.

That's just the free storage. They sell more cheaply.

Others like Dropbox.

For tbs the original post about the hard drive would be best idea. More safe, speed, and a lot more features. Online storage is also not too bad of an idea, but in the long run will probably cost you more. As another previous post though, you can always pay a subscription that should do fairly well if you don't mind uploading a ton of files to the web.

ok well i went with my service providers package plan that included online storage well there computers are down R something along those lines and at the same time im not able to log in to access my data & i do agree with you that just buying a hdd would be cheaper more secure & a ton of more features but i couldnt & still cant afford to pay out 100+ for a big hdd but since im not able to access my data im back to lookin for a replacement
i was thinking rapidshare

$200 for an external 3TB drive is too much?

There are of course cheaper ones out there.

bigdog2626 you have already discovered the pluses and minuses between on line storage and your own hard drive storage. You are the only one who can decide where you want to spend the money. As I posted before #3 a hard drive would be my choice.

 

[bigdog2626]

yes you are 100 right its my choice but as i said i cant afford a 2tb usb R HDD right now so 10 a month is a lot cheaper then 100+ just asking how rapidshare is & if any one here uses them
