Web Storage - Internet storage -Help!

I want to know if there is any website that stores your data, if so, is there a price for it? I have lost a couple of flash drives and need to find a more efficient way to store my data where I can access from anywhere in the world. I would appreciate any help! Thanks again!

Unreliable so get 2 or more.

A recent post by another member was flailing a web storage system due to it losing their photos. While interesting I wonder why they relied on just one place to keep what they didn't want to lose. In their case a 10 cent CDR copy would have saved them.

Point? Their photos weren't worth 10 cents.

Sure there are likely lots...

Extremetech article link about 6 free ones. While there are likely options to get more space at a price, don't forget to factor in things like security and privacy of the data as well.

They give you 2GB free storage, and then if you refer people (as with my link above, they give you 250mb extra upto an extra 3GB). After that you can pay for 50GB.

Works with Mac, Windows & Linux.

I've been using it for a few weeks now and am very impressed!
