File Sharing

Dropbox is a file hosting service that offers cloud storage, file synchronization, personal cloud, and client software. Dropbox allows users to create a special folder on their computers, which Dropbox then synchronizes so that it appears to be the same folder (with the same contents) regardless of which device is used to view it.

Backup & Sync

SnapRAID is an open-source backup program for disk arrays. It protects data on hard disk drives by generating parity information that allows recovery from up to six disk failures. It does not create copies of files, but relies on regular block-level snapshots to provide history.
