So my computer doesnt have much space (3 gigs total, dont laugh ), and while I am planing to rip the harddrive out of my older computer to get another gig, or at least a half, I need some help storing stuff.
OK, I know there are stites for are FOR sharing your music(made by goofs like me ) and storing it etc, Soundclick comes to mind, what are some other good ones????
AND........
I know there are sites that are for storing anything, photos , movies etc, I figured I could use these for the same thing.(storing music)
I will use both
So until my poor ass has a better computer etc.....what are my options, where do I store the finished digital product????
Psilo

I suggest getting a small hard drive off of ebay. if all you want is a few gigs, you should be able to get one way cheap, probally cheaper than a site for storing data. i got a 40 gig hard drive from some dude in the market place for 6or7 prints.

get an external harddrive off ebay. or an internal harddrive...and an external enclosure...same thing just cheaper. enclosures run for $15 to $40 bucks US. pop in the harddrive, plug in via usb/firewire...format it. easy.

Ok , thats cool but what about sites that let you store songs(etc) , because I want to have a place on the net to store my files.
(btw, someone at another site said thet might GIVE me 20GBs! , for someone like me with only three thats quite a nice gift)

yeah, but file access to a web server vs a hard drive in your computer is almost incomparable.
There are many sites like Soundclick, Zebox, Vitiminic that are artist sites that host a few songs for you, but nothing huge and aren't really for just plain storage.
If you're looking for storage your best bet would be a HD, they aren't too expensive.

I wouldnt feel comfortable loading illegal obtained music on somebody else's server. And it would take forever to load even a gig of material depending on your upload speed. Not to mention, free sites most likely will not allow that amount of space to you.
Get that HD enclosure, if your serious about hosting huge amounts of files you are better off getting a good connection and setting up your own server from your computer.

I don't know how big of transfers are allowed on gmail (www.gmail.com), but they allow 1gb of storage per email account. The catch is that the only way to get an account it to get an invite from somebody by trading something (unless you have a friend with one). I got mine from trading some ethnos

GabbaDJ just recommended me this website to host audio files. I'm only hosting one so far.
Click here for a link to download the file that I'm hosting.
This may be what you're looking for right now, but you really need a new harddrive. I couldn't even hold my OS and program files in 3 gigs, letalone my media folder (music, videos, pictures, installers, anything important)!!
