Thank you.



What are you planning to use it for? Have a look at Box.com - I've got
several free accounts and have always found it preferable to (say) Dropbox.

Box gives you up to 10GB of storage per account with a maximum
individual file size of 250Mb. That's fine for everything I want to do,
but if want to store large video files it may not work for you.

It works through a browser interface, so should be ok with XP. Wait . .
Just tries with my wife's XP system, and access Box via Google Chrome
with no problem.

However, there is an application called Box Synch which you can use if
you want to synch files in certain folders with your cloud storage
automatically. Box don't seem to guarantee that that will work on XP,
but some sources say it will. depending on how you want t o operate, you
may not need it anyway.
