Cool, so now it’s a “work laptop” and I can justify expensing it !!

Only reason why they’d put Word on it IMO

I know and I researched quite a bit before making the jump.

Basically there are couple of things which make me think they won’t just shut down:

• They’ve been around for quite a while (10 years as of now)
• They’re betting on the ever decreasing costs of storage to manage their margin
• They still try to sell you complementary products
• They don’t ever have to increase your max storage unless you pay again
• They still have monthly subscription available

All in all, I’ve felt pretty safe using them and I’ve done the cloud provider switch once so I can do it again

PCloud, once in a lifetime payment. Quite happy with it and works well with RSync

Just buy it on black friday as it’s usually their lowest “on sale” price (they are always on sale it seems)

Sorry but you are using the wrong cloud storage provider.

I’ve switched to pCloud on black Friday. It was a one time payment for 2TB lifetime (10TB is also available) cloud storage. I checked and it was ~250€ at the time.

Considering the amount of HDD I’ve burned through in the early years I’ve already saved a couple thousand dollars and I haven’t lost any file since.

Just make sure to watch their price as they currently have a sale and I don’t believe for 1 second that the initial price was in fact 1140€ for 2TB as advertised.
