Door with chain

Both Bitcasa Drive and Copy.com are shutting down in May. These aren’t the first cloud storage services to shut down and leave their users hanging, and they likely won’t be the last. If you’re wondering where you should put your data after they’ve closed, you’ll be happy to know that there are many suitable alternatives to these services.

Free Cloud Storage

Free cloud storage is all the rage. If you want to upload a school or work document, or share a simple family photo album, there’s no need to spend money on an expensive paid service. Most people don’t need terabytes of storage to sync and share files. Many cloud services can fit your needs, with a cost of zero.

OpenDrive is an unlimited online backup and cloud storage service.  It claims to be “a powerful, cloud based drive accessible from anywhere” and touts file sharing and synchronization among its features.  Is this a cloud service you should consider using?  I will take a look at how OpenDrive performs in this in-depth review.
