No file size limitations. :)

I don't really see where I'm gonna use it but I'd still sign up :p

Yea I'm the same, I have random GB accounts all over the place, but I`m sure one day they`ll all come in handy

I was trying to find the referral link, it says get more space by inviting friends, we could all add our link to our reply and next member uses previous link etc, would work out well for everyone but I cant find it

I won;t sign up till I can help someone by clicking a referral link

I found it, its at the bottom of your home page once you sign up, you have to invite them via email :)

1GB per referral, 10GB max

Thanks, I got your referral, next poster PM email to next in line :)

Yep thanks, I also signed myself up again with another email address and got another 1GB :)

Yep, they haven't put in a comprehensive referrel system like dropbox does. There is no benefit to the person who uses the referral because they don't get the free 1 gig, only the person who sends it. Use meltmail.com if you need extra temp addresses to max out.

Yeah I have 25gb on Skydrive don't need this at the moment but I will still sign up!

:D lol, I think I have 50GB on BOX, 25GB on SD, 12GB on this, and a few other box and skydrive accounts with a few more GB

EDIT - Oh yea, and another 50GB on adrive.com

I tried to upload 2GB file, got this: Please upload files less than 200 MB. For me it's useless service if they are limiting size of a single file. Yes, i could split the file in parts, but no thanks, not worth.

Desktop sync is good but the file limitation is the downside (if you're just a free user :p )

Damn, FAQ says there are no file limitations. Is that through the browser or the sync app?

I've just dragged a 3.3GB windows 8 ISO into the idrivesync software and it is uploading it fine

Through the browser, i hate having to install any additional addons or software just to get the functionality which can be provided by a browser.

I am attached to Charter's Cloud Drive service as a customer. They keep switching from 10TB limit to unlimited space allowances. Still haven't found a reason to use it because I am too paranoid about my data. I figured I had a solution to this - send encrpyted files up to the cloud drive! So as a test, I tried to encrypt some files (Family Photos), as a test. Ended up with a 23gb file. Got kicked back for too large of a file to upload.

So, there are some reasons to have a file upload size limitation requirement for some services. If I knew there was a limitation, I wouldn't have spent the time pushing files into the Encrypted container (Trucrpyt).

How can one truly be sure your data you send up to these 'cloud services' will not be 'accidentally erased' some day in a server glitch or some mishap that they come up with? Or, what about a rogue employee that is bent on getting fired, decides to snoop around in your files?

    • Yes, it was amusing at the time because even then dbrand was well known for stealing the designs of products from other companies. That’s what they do.
    • Didn’t Dbrand once complain that Casetify was ripping off their designs a well? seems pretty bad of them to try and get around Valve’s copyright this way with that in mind.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed by David Uzondu Image via Dbrand Dbrand has cancelled its highly anticipated Companion Cube enclosure for the Valve Steam Machine, which it teased back in November of last year with a concept render and sign-up page, because it did not ask Valve for permission first before manufacturing the case. According to Dbrand, it took the "backwards approach" of building the product first before asking for permission from the copyright holder. Seven months of work went into the project, requiring over a thousand engineering hours from the design team. Workers developed forty-four sets of injection molding tools, making a unique mold for each sub-component of the crate. When the Companion Cube went live on Monday last week, it, according to Dbrand, quickly became the second-fastest-selling product in the company's fifteen-year history, racking up orders for hundreds of thousands of units. Customers eagerly bought the $129.95 deluxe edition or the bare-bones $99.95 version, which the manufacturer cheekily branded as the "Poverty Cube". It was around this time that the legal eagles at Valve descended on the accessory maker with a formal demand. The developer pointed out that the iconic block design remains protected intellectual property from the game Portal, so unlicensed sales had to stop. Dbrand said that all its pleas to salvage the project with the Valve team, including proposals to run a properly licensed release under official terms "with their blessing", fell on deaf ears, so it had no choice but to obey and remove every trace of the product from the internet. If you bought the enclosure, the company said that banks will process your refund by the end of this week, but if it still hasn't arrived in your account by then, you should not hesitate to contact support. The Steam Machine itself is a high-performance console that Valve designed directly to bring PC gaming into the living room. It was announced on 12th November 2025 (the same day Dbrand announced the Cube) and runs on the Linux-based SteamOS, the same OS that powers the Steam Deck. As for the price, due to the shortage of memory and storage chips, the hardware cost landed much higher than people were expecting, starting at $1,049 for the 512 model (without a controller) or $1,128 with the new gamepad. The premium 2 TB model pushes those prices even higher, selling at $1,349 for the standalone console and hitting $1,428 if you want the bundle.
