Technical Guruji: Running short of online storage
What’s the best way to ensure you don’t lose your data? The world’s largest tech vlogger spills the beans
Storage issues
What’s better to store pictures: a cloud service, or a hard drive?
—SM, Via Instagram
Why not use both? For a cloud service Google Photos does a fab job. It’s multi-platform with free unlimited storage. It has an upper limit for photos saved in 12 mega-pixel format, but that should not be a big issue. Also, it is seamlessly integrated. You could use a hard drive if you work offline or need a huge archive. Considering India’s poor Internet connections, it’s useful. So choose both but primarily the cloud back up. If you’re an iOS user, you can use iCloud but that means payable storage after 5 GB.
