Cloud Mail.ru

The modern Internet has provided all users with such a huge number of opportunities that even simply listing them would take quite a lot of time. And what’s best is that the list of available technological innovations continues to grow quite rapidly, and existing solutions are being improved, rapidly approaching perfection.

This continuous technological evolution has also affected storage media, adding a new group of data storage to the list of stationary and portable devices - cloud storage. Thanks to their widespread implementation, user work with information has been transferred to a new, more modern and reliable level.

The idea of ​​cloud disks (storages) is simple and extremely clear: the user can store the files he needs or are simply interested in not on his own PC or mobile device, but on network storage on the Internet (on secure servers) and you can access such information from anywhere in the world ball.

The concept of such storages turned out to be so popular that Internet giants such as Google and Yandex instantly implemented it for their users.

However, today we will talk about another organization - the Mail.ru company, which has developed and put into operation its own cloud, which is often superior in capabilities to the services of the above companies (the size of the provided disk space is noticeably larger than competitors, the file transfer speed - downloading / uploading is also higher).

You can download mail.ru cloud to your computer for free in Russian. The link is available on the Mail.ru website in the user’s account (shown in the screenshot), or on our website at the bottom of this material (before the “technical information” section). Let’s say right away that every user who has opened a mailbox on their servers has the ability to access the cloud.

Features of working with the Mail.ru cloud:

• simple and intuitive user interface both when using the web version of the cloud and in the case of software installed on the computer;
• The size of the free disk space is 25 GB (you will have to pay for additionally allocated disk space);
• The file upload limit is 2 GB (if you install the program, all limits are removed);
• If you install the program on a PC, working with the cloud is reduced to working with a regular Windows folder, data into which can be copied or deleted from there. All changes made in this way will be made on the cloud itself (on the Internet) thanks to the automatically launched synchronization function;

By the way, users of the Mac OS and Linux operating systems, as well as owners of mobile devices based on Android and iOS OS, for which adapted versions of the programs have been released, are not left out.

Advantages of cloud storage Mail.ru disk

1. First of all, there are no restrictions on the speed of downloading a file or uploading it to the cloud. The only limit is the speed of the user’s Internet channel;
2. You can download from disk or upload to disk several files at the same time (this applies to both the web version of the service and when installing the program on a PC);
3. when uploading files to the cloud, they are automatically scanned by Kaspersky anti-virus, which minimizes the transfer of unwanted software inside file archives and malicious macros in office documents;
4. high reliability of data storage. It is ensured by the use of two independent data centers, one of which stores the original, and the second acts as a backup storage (in case of failure when using the first);
5. a document placed in the cloud cannot be forgotten at home - to access the file you only need access to the Internet;
6. text files can be created directly in the browser, and then edited online using a simple web-based analogue of Microsoft Word. The same opportunity is available in the mode of working with presentations and spreadsheets;
7. mail.ru cloud can be downloaded for free on any modern device.

Separately, I would like to say that a document posted on the mail.ru cloud can be viewed and edited by all interested parties (employees, friends or relatives). To do this, you need to share access to a folder or file, such as Google Drive.

We recommend this service as the simplest and most accessible option for simple and advanced users. Let us remind you that you can download the mail.ru cloud to your computer using a direct link on our website or from your personal mail service account. And to remove a program, use the control panel options in the "Add or Remove Programs" section.
