    Mine is still 15GB. There are someimes errors with automatic data saving more often. I'm not sure if I will upload as much as possible data given 100 GB in the future, because you may have to move some important data if you don't want to pay.

    Yeah I know it's not really the same.
    Airgap network. And even if the NSA etc have malwared disk firmware, etc, then a firm digitus impudicus to them.

    As for the OneDrive offer, since it requires both having an MS account (no way) and even signing up to an MS newsletter (you can guess what I think of that), then personally .... no thanks. I don't need mobile access to my data, am certainly not uploading photos to it, and wouldn't take them up on this if it was 100TB, and they paid me to use it.

    Cloud storage? Not a chance. Ever. Not with anybody, especially MS .... and extra-especially not with Google (for whom I hope Satan created an extra particularly unpleasant even-lower lever of Hell, because they deserve it).

    finally got dropbox to work too... had to use ie for some reason, palemoon was fine for the other 100GB so I've now got around 240GB (legacy 25GB, 15GB photo roll, 200GB from these). Doubt I'll end up using it but it's handy for backing up things like my mp3's

    It should be handy if 'onedrive music' is launched with the limited 'free space' that's being rumoured too as that wouldn't have covered my collection.

    I logged the call with MS about the validation element of the promo not working - so I was surprised to see an email back from them saying that they've now fixed the issue

    Nice one MS 130GB of storage now

    Re: Microsoft offers 100GB free bonus OneDrive storage globally

    100GB "convoluted" link didn't work for this UK based customer! Worse still I had to agree to allow Onedrive to make changes in order to prove it didn't work under the pretext I could change them back from within options. However not all the things I had to agree to show within options.

    Not great really wish I hadn't seen this in Hexus.
