Hi everyone,

Recently, I decided that I wanted to do some online storage for photos that I might want to access from another place. I remembered that when I bought my hard drive, it included like 10GB (I really don't remember) of storage online on a website called Wuala.
I'd like to know if anyone has ever had any experiences with this site, if they're reliable, if my data is stored safely and anything else you can tell me about this site.
Also, if you can recommend any free sites where I can store my photos, I would appreciate it.

Thanks :)

No experience with Wuala, but DropBox gives you 2GB free and some of the best syncing between devices around!

+1 on dropbox, likewise google drive is similar and if storage space is critical just use both for free :twisted:

Hey SnapShot, thanks for reminding me of this thread! I have been using Dropbox for a while now and I'm very happy with it, I haven't used Google Drive, but maybe I'll give it a try later.

Thanks :)
