Re: Drive1 Compared with DropBox
Microsoft says OneDrive has no limits has to how many times a file can be downloaded or how many megabytes can be downloaded from an account in a day. Yes, I am aware that the 100 GB of space from Bing rewards lasts a year. In March 2015, I will find out if I can obtain another 100 GB of storage to replace the storage that is going away. If not, I will figure out a different solution. Nothing is permanent. Currently, I have more than four GB of space with my regular OneDrive account that is not being used let alone the 100 GB that I haven’t touched.

RE: Drive1 Compared with DropBox
Terrie, a day or so? What is your upload speed. What size files are we talking about? It would be nice to hear that the upload to one drive is faster, but this is user adjustable in DropBox. So perhaps you are not taking full advantage of the upload speed? I'm just curious why it is taking so long.
