I just use pCloud mounted as a network drive and throw everything I am not currently working on on it. With 10Gbps I have at home, it works wonders.

Plus, the storage is unlimited. Plus, it is more resistant to failures and disaster than anything home made. Plus, I don't have to store and take care of another noisy box in my home.

Nice, that's a cool setup!

What area of the world do you live where you get 10 Gbps to the Internet? Can you reliably get 10 Gbps transfers to pCloud?

I got 1 Gbps fiber in the last year, but it's more like 700-800 Mbps in practice. I consider myself lucky to even get that, as my experience before that has always been 100-200 Mbps even on a "1 Gbps" plan. I'm super jealous of people who get a full 10 Gbps Internet connection.

I live in Bucharest, Romania. We can get 10Gbps FTTH since the beginning of the year.

Uploads to pCloud are about half of that while downloads can be over 1GB/s.

You can get 25 Gbps in Switzerland :)

Where did you find the unlimited storage offering? I couldn't find it on their website.

Lifetime plan on their website.

No that can't be it, it's limited to 2TB. Could you post the link? Thanks!

Sorry I misread it!

It's 2Tb plan, but unlimited in the sense I can grow it to whatever I need. I got 8Tb with 75% off on Black Friday.
