    owh cool man~

    but hey, last time xdrive.com also offer such service for free, but now they charge.

    so i wonder if this box.net will turn to be like xdrive?

    I think the transfer rates depend solely on your connection. I upload to box.net at ~80kb/s and download at over 500kb/s. Think you might like my box.net review recently: http://www.paulstamatiou.com/2006/03/01/boxnet-...

    Most of these so called free service does have some hidden catch. If you are really serious about the data stored in the online storage then it is better to go with some service which has been there for years. Try IBackup, they have a great reputation. BTW do they alllow a FTP upload?

    Box.net does have a lot of hype, but there is no real technologies it has added to the online storage service. I would say XDrive, FilesAnywhere, and more recently, DriveHQ.com have much better technologies and features. I particularly like DriveHQ’s FileManager and WWWBackup software, really works like Explorer, makes online storage more like a local drive, and the performance is quite good.
    FileManager already has sync feature, and wwwbackup has real-time backup and versioning support, both applications support encrypted backup. So where does Box.net stand?
