I use DropBox and Box.net services for my file storage and sharing. XDrive a bit sluggish. A good comprehensive list of file storage services.
Great stuff! Can I subscribe to your content via RSS feed or email. I don’t see a mechanisms for either of these…
What about Gigasize? They offer unlimited storage, plus I recieved a $100 cheque for sharing my files.

I am using Drop box, it’s pretty simple and very handy. Especially easy for non geek users :)

Zamzar.com is also nice for file conversion, and it doesn’t require flash. 100MB if you use it for free, accounts go up to $50/month. Works pretty well.
File dropper removes files when they are not being downloaded. I’m not sure at what point they take them down, but I’ve been screwed by that before. It’s a good place for short term use, but your files will vanish if they are not being downloaded from the site.
I cant believe you forgot to include http://ifile.it/ on the list, it has some really nice free features and they dont screw around with users like some of the above sites
AOL announced that they were sunsetting X drive. If this is true it should be removed from the list.
When storage is only needed for backup Mozy is a nice alternative. Mozy offers 2GB for free. The best thing is that every person that clicks on the link and starts using Mozy, will get another 256MB of free backupspace.
https://mozy.com/?ref=742EE0
http://www.humyo.com is what I use. 30GB for free with the ability to make music and videos public for streaming.
I use this online storage site: http://www.ofile.com
Has 5gbs of storage. It works and is reliable for what I need in terms of online storage.
yandex is “russian google”. they have all kind of services, email and net drive. there is no restriction on number of files.
http://mihd.net/ (aka http://ifile.it/) is my preferred method. No waits, no captcha, and fast upload/download.
I’m wary of these file sharing sites-why do they let you do it for nothing?? and what happens to your shit if they suddenly break down??
This is Sean at Box.net. Thanks for including us in this post! In addition to our free plan that provides 1 GB of storage, we also offer paid plans if users need additional storage (5 GB and above), along with generous file size limits and unlimited bandwidth. But besides the storage aspect, Box.net makes it easy to share files and collaborate with others, which is great for project-based work. And finally, you can use files stored on Box.net directly with popular web applications from Zoho, Picnik, ThinkFree, Facebook and many others. For more info, visit Box.net and http://www.box.net/info/pricing-plans. Feel free to reach out to us anytime.
which one has the fastest downloadspeeds for unregistered users?
i think that is what makes the best service. my personal favorite is netload.in for the incredible speed.
You guys, Totally forgot about…

Oosah.
It claims to give 1TB of free space.
:P~ I’m using dropbox. Hasn’t got time to take a look at Oosah

dropbox is awesome! especially for school
i just save all my stuff into my folder, and i can access it at school
i also tired live mesh though, because of dropbox’s 1gb limit, and it turns out that its a buggy piece of crap that can’t seem to upload large files
its a piece of crap, but had/has the potential to be better than dropbox
Dropbox’s connection can be blocked in certain network, especially if you are in a corporate or firewalled network. In this case, it is best to switch to using traditional HTTP connection; which Dropbox also support. So, yes, it is a great list of free online storage sites, and my vote goes to Dropbox.
What a helpful list! Thank you. There are always more to add, like the other commenters have stated. I’ll throw out another: mozy.com.
my favorites:
1. http://upload.inesports.com - simple, fast, easy but lacks descriptions otherwise perfect.
2. filesavr.com - not as fast but looks nice and works well and also lacks descriptions.
3. badongo.com - looks nice, is pretty fast but has annoying ads.
What security guarantee is there for dumping your files on these “servers”. Surely just backing up to a external source is far more secure.
You forgot to mention http://www.mydisk.se
I have used it for the last months, started to use it with weave, but now also using it for other data and photo sharing.
Works splendidly!

Nice list but I would take off Xdrive, I have tried it and it’s utterly rubbish. If you don’t remember your password you can’t retrieve it. And on top of that rumors are circulating about AOL wanting to get rid of this company. So don’t put your data there you are going to lose it
Here is also a very goood site: http://www.5azin.net
there you can upload as many files as you wish
files wich are not getting downloaded will be deleted after 3 months
Cool list - missed my current favourite tho - microsoft Mesh.
;)
