These are secured and trusted site, so you don’t have to worry about your files to be downloaded or stolen. You can even save each file with your own password for better security.

This is my favorite storage site for several reasons, they give you different methods to upload your files such as manual or Java. Their uploading tools make it easy to browse your computer and add files to your DivShare account. Once a file is uploaded, they will provide you with a unique sharing link. After uploading, your files are kept online in your DivShare account forever!

No need to worry anymore about losing your data due to computer failures or outsider threats, sign up with Adrive and they would give your up to 50GB of storage space for free. designed to simplify the management of your data-intensive lifestyle.  They offer online file storage and backup services with an array of enhanced features to make storing and protecting your data more convenient than ever.  Their service offering allows for increased access to your data from anywhere you are connected to the Internet. Adrive allows your to remotely transfer your files, which is a unique feature.

This site will give you 2GB free, its ideal for individuals and small businesses. IDrive Online Backup Classic offers an intuitive interface, similar to Microsoft Windows Explorer, which makes it easy to select files/folders for remote backup and restore activities. When you install IDrive for the first time, a default selection of most commonly backed up data including Documents, Pictures and Videos is created with a random after hours schedule. You can customize the selection and schedule. IDrive does true archiving. No data is deleted from your account until you manually delete or run sync to match your desktop data to your account. You control your backup data. IDrive automatically recognizes the modified parts of file(s)/folder(s) and backs them up every 10 minutes, thus offering hands-free backup of data.

humyo storage space works just like the folders on your computer. Simply drag and drop files into the humyo.com folder on your computer or onto the humyo.com web site – they’ll be safely stored in our secure vault and synchronised to any other computers linked to your account. How much space? 10GB, yes 10GB is a lot of space you can even access your humyo.com space from any computer or mobile phone, anywhere in the world.

Kadoo:

10GB of free space, full email system and sending large files without fail. With these features you can backup all your hard drive without worrying to where and how to save securely your important documents and files. They offer also free faxing, I didn’t use the faxing service yet, but it seems pretty cool. Kadoo has really beautiful web interface, and once you sign up you will get your personal webpage to manage your files easily. You can upload up to 1GB at once and up to 10GB of free space.

Live SkyDrive:

They have recently increased the free space from 5GB to 25GB. They’ve added almost 20 new features to make the photo experience on Windows Live SkyDrive even better such as supporting People Tags, bigger thumbnails, and a new online slideshow using Microsoft Silverlight.

Boxstr:

Another good option for online storage, they provide you with 5GB, they provide desktop client for free but you can upload only 50MB per day, which I think its a weakest feature and disadvantage in point of view.

Box:

This site considered the easiest way to share, save and manage your files online. Upload large documents, photos, spreadsheets, video, or even zip files to your space. Securely store your files online and create shared folders to collaborate with clients, colleagus and your friends. One of the main features that I really like about Box is that you can edit your documents and photos online, not software download is required. How great is that?
