If you haven't heard of "cloud computing" right now, it's really out! It is no exaggeration to say that cloud computing is the hottest technology in the second half of 2011 and even longer. In all of the "cloud computing" applications, the most "approachable" is the cloud storage: Apple's icloud, Jinshan fast disk, and even hardware products, millet mobile phones and Aliyun mobile phones, are not a "cloud storage" as an important selling point. Personal cloud storage applications are achieving robust growth.
Strong growth in personal cloud storage
What is cloud storage? In short, cloud storage is about storing data on a network, not on a local hard drive. In this way, the network disk can play a good backup role. For example, the current popular web albums and video sites, can be regarded as a cloud storage services. The rest, such as the current popular various network disk, the function is similar, no matter is the upload file format can be more just.
But if the concept of cloud storage is just a "uploading files to the Web" concept, it would be too easy. Many of the files uploaded by the network will not only have time constraints, but also can not sync with your computer in real time. For example, you have a daily update of the Word document, it can only exist in the computer, unless you update the document every time, upload a network disk, particularly troublesome. So, now the network disk application, basically just a "backup" function.
So, to let cloud storage truly into everyone's life, this application not only to have the network disk function, also has the real-time synchronization function, the best also like the Explorer as simple and easy to use. Jinshan fast disk, is this kind of personal cloud storage application Leader: Simple, easy to use, safe, large capacity, real-time synchronization. So, this kind of personal cloud service application in the recent strong growth, it is too easy to understand.
Another big advantage of cloud storage is saving money. For example, Jinshan fast disk, it provides 15GB free space for each user, equivalent to send you a free 16GB u disk, the market price in hundred yuan. But the U disk to consider the speed, life and many other problems, and even to prevent loss and leakage, and Jinshan fast all this need not worry.

Sharing fun with personal cloud storage
Another advantage that personal cloud storage can easily be overlooked is that it is easy to share.
For example, a lot of people like to watch videos on websites such as Youku potatoes, because these are "online", so you not only can see, you can also recommend the TV series to your family and friends, only need to send an address to them on the line, do not give them each to buy a TV series CD-ROM ... And if there's no cloud storage, you're probably going to have to buy each of them a CD-ROM or run around with the CD ...
For example, the new version of the Jinshan fast disk adds a very practical function: the chain. Any file in your Jinshan quick drive can generate a link address, and then you send this address to someone else and they can download the file directly. Before this, we can only pass the file via QQ, or send the attachment by mail. With QQ transmission file instability, and the use of mail attachment capacity will be limited, can not continue to pass the breakpoint.
A few friends go outing together, each take the camera, each take photos of each other, passing photos, is always a headache. Now with the outside chain function, all this is easy. Everyone loaded Jinshan fast, the photo packaging, production chain, the link to other people, then everything is done!
So, sharing is also a must kill technology of cloud storage.
is personal cloud storage secure?
Perhaps you would say, cloud storage is very convenient, but put the file on the network, will not disclose privacy AH?
I understand your concern, but since cloud storage is the future trend, security must be trustworthy. In fact, cloud storage service providers are equipped with a variety of security measures, such as firewalls, complex passwords and anti-virus software and so on, is far from the individual users. It's no exaggeration to say that attacking a cloud storage server is thousands of tens of thousands of times times more difficult than attacking a personal user! What's more, many people's computers are still stuck in the era of XP SP2 and IE6, and even shut down Automatic Updates, which is basically no different from the big open door. So a comparison, put the file on their own computer, it seems more unsafe!
If you still do not trust, then you do not have the privacy of the information stored in the network, it is all right! However, if you refuse the convenience of cloud storage, it is really unworthy.
Summary
So think about it, you will find that from the online music, to the online video, in fact, cloud storage has been quietly infiltrated into our lives, but you have never realized it! The upcoming icloud will also drive more individual users to embrace cloud storage. In fact, sharing is the fundamental value of the Internet, and cloud storage is the catalyst to achieve all this.
So let's take a more proactive embrace of cloud storage!
