Buying a new hard drive or solid-state storage solution is nearly out of the question. The cost of buying a physical drive has essentially doubled, so storing photos, files, and other important data is a little harder. An affordable alternative remains – secure cloud storage.
Cloud storage has been a clean and easy solution for some time, but changing digital ecosystems and subscription costs make it a challenge not only to stay on top of but also to afford. That’s only compounded by physical storage costs. Buying an SSD now would cost you twice as much as it did a year ago. The traditional method of storing photos you’ve collected over the years and all of your personal data on a secure physical solution is significantly less feasible.
A good alternative is a service like pCloud. Based in Switzerland, pCloud is a cloud storage platform that serves over 24 million customers worldwide. That spans between personal use cases and business professionals who need trusted, flexible storage options that have a reputation of security.
Unlike a cloud service built within an ecosystem like Apple’s or Google’s, pCloud is accessible from any operating system without a subscription. Users on macOS, Windows, and Linux using pCloud Drive are able to access files that sync across devices in real time. That’s where cloud storage gets the upper hand on physical options.
