Drop box or skydrive? Which is better?

[Mauricio Prinzlau]

Hi Zeiinab!

Right of the bat it is hard to tell which service is the best solution because it comes down to your needs. Unfortunately, both services will delete your files if you delete them from your hard drive. So those services are not suited "to make room" on your hard drive. They are best use for "file sync" purposes, meaning you can make your files available on all of your devices.

True "online storage" is hard to come by. There is a service called Zoolz which allows infinite archival of files even if you delete them from your computers. Other services like MEGA give you 50GB free storage and you can just upload a couple of files there. You might want to compare services according to your needs:
