    Free FTP Server

    I need to upload 1 GB of data which I plan to recover later.
    The Gmail as harddrive extension is not working on my PC.
    Does anyone know any ftp servers which can let me do this?

    You can email 1GB at www.yousendit.com
    just send it to yourself. you will get a link that is active for about a week.
    they might limit the number of downloads, i haven't really tested it.

    So, you'd use your own hard drive to host a file for yourself?

    With WarFtp, yes you would - it will probably be faster too. WarFtp is a powerful server - they use it at work, it handle about 100 logins per day.

    Re: Free FTP Server

    Naah, I cant go for warFTP. The trouble is the data is lying on my hard-disk, which will get formatted. So I don't want to turn my PC into a ftp server. I need space somewhere out there which I can recover in a month's time. So faryousendit.com does the needful.

    Even on a really fast connection it is going to take forever to upload a gigabyte.....burning to a DVD or two CD's would be a much more logical choice, plus you then do not risk losing the data through some unknown complication with a file that large being uploaded to someone elses server.

    yeah....when you upload too big files, the servers try to do some kind of compression.

    Stupid security rules in my office. Allow me to have a network connection, but no cd-drives.
