![]() I want a safe backup for family photos and videos, even though I’m not going to access them on a daily basis. But the remaining 1% of my files take up terabytes of hard drive space. These files tend to be relatively small, and I can easily fit them within my 11.5GB Dropbox allotment. I’ve found that the 99% of the files I need to access and share on a regular basis are primarily office documents-Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc. Yes, I know that I’m also paying for near universal access to my files, but that value proposition just doesn’t hold water for me. But the idea of paying for the same storage again and again just doesn’t appeal to me. I’ve got somewhere around 11.5GB of free space, which I use to back up sync and share. That’s why I’m an avid user of the free version of Dropbox. Once I purchase a hard drive, I shouldn’t have to buy it again next year. Paying for the same hard drive every year doesn’t make senseįirst, let me tell you why I find Bitcasa’s model so appealing. I’m going to stick with Bitcasa for a while.Once it’s on Bitcasa’s (Amazon) cloud, don’t ever count on being able to delete it.Bitcasa 1.1.0.0 is a memory hog, and will cause significant system degradation while uploading.It lacks the intuitive feature set and interface of Dropbox. Bitcasa 1.1.0.0 is a step beyond beta.I’ll use Dropbox for syncing, sharing, and collaboration. I plan to use Bitcasa for video and image storage and backup.I really like that Bitcasa encrypts my data for real.I do not yet regret paying Bitcasa $100: The value proposition of paying $100 per year to meet my ever increasing storage needs is compelling.I heard about Bitcasa’s much-hyped “infinite storage,” and decided to give it a chance. This post reviews Bitcasa 1.1.0.0 hopefully future versions will fix some of these bugs.
