Linda:
Open Drive is different from Dropbox because even though you might be
sharing folders with others and they can access the same folder as you,
when you have stuff in Dropbox, it takes up room on your computer, and Open
Drive doesn't. Open drive has a "cloud," which means that even though the
folders look like the ones on your computer, they're on the web, not taking
up room on your computer. I have an unlimited account of my own, which is
only $99 a year. For a place to back up your whole computer if you wanted
to, that's not a bad price. Ourplace obviously has the unlimited account,
as I'm sure you already know.

Hi All,
I was thinking just the other night that I might want to get an account
for Open Drive to back up all this incredible fount of music, books and OTR
that I could possibly be downloading as I have a 1 terrabyte hard drive
right now. Can’t remember how large my computer’s memory is, but no way is
it anywhere near a terrabyte of storage. I have no information about how
much a 4 terrabyte hard drive might cost as opposed to getting an Open
Drive account, and I gather that would be unlimited, right? The Open Drive
concept is totally new to me. I haven’t gotten a dropbox account yet but
am sharing a dropbox with a friend from the midwest whom Marty and Kevin
know. Any information would be really helpful. Thanks in advance.
