Having additional storage units is always a plus. There are many uses we can give it, from having additional space to store the file to using it as a backup copy of the file. If this disc is available on the internet, the possibilities are even greater. This is what Dropbox offers, a free virtual storage for storing files on the internet via a simple multi-platform client, with all the benefits of storing documents in the cloud.

This application creates a directory on a local file system that is synchronized with a virtual disk on the Internet. You can change this directory if you wish. This opens the door to new possibilities, such as automatically syncing your Personal Documents folder and making a backup copy of it.

There are two folders in this directory special: Public and photo. You can save the file to a public folder so that others can access it over the Internet without having to access your account. In the Photos folder, you can upload image albums so that others can access them via the URL without having to access your Dropbox account directly.

In this way, Dropbox can be a very useful tool to free your hard drive and, by chance, share files with friends and acquaintances. There are also official clients for smartphones and browsers, so you can access your content from anywhere and from any device.
