Dude, you're the man!

Free or $ 29 ??

Yes I actually got in on the deal.

Thanks for the tip OP.
I got it on the action as well.
Although not really sure if/how I am going to use it, since they don't offer a client for linux and I already have a Subsonic server set up for my music streaming needs, but it's good to have options and even better if they are free.

I wondered that too
I think it was trying to say 'worth $29'

thanks alot of the info. i was just looking at logmein and dropbox the other day and was thinking about it, but this is a sweet deal. i don't know if it's the same kind of service. but i think it's better for me to have access to my entire computer, then have to upload it to dropbox, and logmein seems more to just viewing and sharing screen content. so this seem like a great idea. thanks alot OP..

I got one so may have to set it up and see what happens!

On their website there is a Pogoplug hard drive. Is that a good thing to buy for this?

>On their website there is a Pogoplug hard drive. Is that a good thing to buy for this?
Pogoplug used to be a hardware/software product. It's morphed to a software app that can be installed on your PC. It is a file/media sharing solution that can be accessed across the net, or within your home network. The diff with DropBox is that you're the host, so you have unlimited storage, but are limited by your broadband upload speed.
The free version can't stream movies. For that, there is the premium version ($29). The above offer is for a free license to said premium version. You can of course buy their hardware, but there is no reason to.
Let me know when the offer is dead, and I'll amend the OP.

the party is over. my co-worker just try getting a license, and they have reach the cap. but they are offering $10 off, so yoy can still get in on the action for $20. but nothing is better then FREE..so thanks again.
by the way those who already have a license, you can download this to as many computers as you want. using the same License code, AS LONG AS IT IS UNDER THE SAME ACCOUNT. in other words, you can put it on your mac, on your pc, on your job computer, on your girlfriend pc or mac, as long as they all log in under your same email you use to sign up. the only down part to this is it has to either be your computer or someone you trust, becasue they will have access to all the files on every computer that you are sharing.
so as long as you keep your porn collection out of the share folder, you can have you wife log in under your account. lol

I thought it was only for LG and sony experia arc handsets?

For those who download the new Android Box app, or upgrade their existing app, the company is throwing in 50GB of free storage for life, while file upload limits will jump to 100MB. A normal Box account provides 5GB of free storage. The company has done this with other app launches, like iOS, which received 1 million downloads in the first five days.
Box > Dropbox, love the 50GB very useful.

Both my Box accounts said upgraded to 50GB .

Yup, mine just upgraded also
Good stuff and many thx!

I have just created a new account and been given 50 GB !
Thank you for the info!

Thanks, jost got mine...

free 50GB is great although there is a 100MB file limit

100mb upload makes it pretty pathetic to me, & I certainly ain't got 50gb of photos & videos under 100mb.
If the 100mb limit isn't removed, they could offer people 500gb+, its just a word - as people won't be able to use it due to the upload limit.

very useful !

Two good deals have arisen for android users lately to do with cloud storage. Dropbox with up to 5gb free earned storage with using their camera upload and unlimited upload filesize limit, and now this, box.net with 50gb but only 100mb upload filesize limit.
Why can't one of them take the initiative and give 50gb free storage and unlimited file size upload limit!?
I have to say that at the moment dropbox has got my attention because this is old news from box.net. Especially since pc sync software from dropbox is free opposed to box.net's paid business pc sync!
On the other hand, they are businesses in it to make money!!

48GB Free drop box space

Hello everyone, I was given 48GB of free space from dropbox because I installed it on the tab. If this was common knowledge sorry for extra post if not then enjoy the massive space increase When you install it they will send you an email telling you . Just click on the link and follow the directions. Enjoy!

Sign up for a dropbox account (if you don't already have one) then sign in on your tablet after you install the app and you should automatically get it.

Just got my 48gb's took less than five mins, more than enough space although it only lasts for 12 months

Looks like you only get it once...
I bought the Galaxy Tab 2 7" for my Mom as a Mother's Day gift. (I kinda owed her something extra nice, since I missed visiting for Christmas). Mom lives about 1,000 miles away and doesn't even have a smartphone much less know what to do with a tablet, so I got it all set up for her and then shipped it off. In the process I used DropBox to transfer over some eBooks. MY DropBox account.
After signing myself out and Mom in, the bonus 50GB (I think it's supposed to be 50) never appeared for Mom. I'm guessing it's once time per MEID (or whatever) rather than once per account.
So, be careful if you're planning on gifting it to someone else, or if you use multiple DropBox accounts. Looks like it'll only give the bonus out ONE time.

I bought the 7 inch tab yesterday and when I logged in it updated me that I had gained 48GB of space free for a year. Checked on the computer and it showed and I checked my phone and it also showed. Pretty cool.

You get 2 GB free when you signup for Dropbox. Do you have 50 GB total? If so, it's probably the 2 DB for signing up and 48 from the Tab 2.
tk

I've had my Tab 2 7" for a month now (a prerelease beta model) and I signed up for Dropbox back then and got no bonus. I've tried redoing it, but since my tablet has already been signed up I didn't get anything. Is there a way to get the 48 GB in my situation?

You get 48gb free. I currently have 65 ish from the free storage i already built up

Try contacting Dropbox and tell them your situation. They'll make an effort to investigate, and if it checks out, you get it!

Yeah, not allowed. Its not a "deal".
Don't see why you need more space if you're a student though.

You sign up for Google ads and get free money on it.. then you link those adds to your drop box. When you have the preset "x amount" of adds you wanted to use all free ad money. Stop it and freeze account. With adds u can get a lot of drop box space

Or just sign up for G-Drive (5GB Free, which all G-Docs do not count to data limit)
Or Cubby.com (Also 5 GB) (I have invites)
Or Box.net (50GB when you signup from an Android Tablet)
Or SkyDrive (Don't know Limit, but higher than DropBox)

Or... do it like me. Had an HTC One X, got 25 GBs from there. Traded up to a Samsung Galaxy S3, and got an additional 50 GBs. Have 75 GBs and all I did was sign in on my phone.
Magical, eh?

Ok, so the problem I have is I want to do a backup of about 30gb of photos. However, most of the mentioned solutions cost too much or do not have a method to upload folders of photos, they want individual files chosen. I have a 25gb sky drive and a 50gb box.net.

You can't possibly expect a service to be cheap.
Just buy a backup HDD then.

Sorry, can't allow it.

Just a note to you guys:
I got 100GB by getting a Chromebook, and my Moto X prompted me for the free 50GB but it never added on. Looks like Google will only allow you to do one promo, and these "promos" don't stack.

Make sure to add your account before going into Gdrive. When you go into Gdrive it asks you which account you want to use to redeem and lists the accounts already in the phone. I tried and apparently screwed up or it didn't work. I'll assume I just screwed up.

i didn't add mine before opening, cuz I didn't even realize I would be able to redeem it until I opened. I just exited without touching anythign then went to add my account, came back and redeemed it on mine.
so then the next day I went out and bought my 16gb black in store....can't redeem it again on my phone LOL
sometimes I do things just to do them

Can someone versed in Google drive answer a question for me? Is there a way to make photos upload automatically to drive, or should I just use Google plus for that?

There is an app on play store for auto upload pictures to gDrive.
Re: stacking promotion with chrome book, the promo between moto x and chromebook stack nicely. You just have to open / close drive after your redeem or wait a few minutes to see your storage size reflected change.

Is there anything Gdrive is better than over dropbox? (other than being free with the X) Serious question. At $4.99 a month for 100gb it's pretty cheap. hmm so that brings up other questions. If you have 15gb already does it stack to 65gb then if you add the $4.99 a month for 100 does that stack to 165 gig? That's what I want if it works.

The 15gb is part of the 100gb. So if you do what you describe you would end up with 150gb for 4.99$

Are there details on this offer anywhere? Like is this for ALL carriers? or just certain ones?
Like the DropBox deal on the Galaxy S3 was available for T-Mobile S3 users, but not Verizon S3.
EDIT: "spects" tab on Verizon's page for the X does say "Get 50 GB of storage on Google Drive, free for two years."

A tip -- if you happened to skip over the redeem button and can't find it again, just go to Settings -> Product Tour in Drive and it will be there (if you had it to begin with).

Hello. I have Nexus 4. How I can get free 50 GB? Maybe replace build.prop?

This doesn't sound right. You should feedback to Google about the promotion. Doesn't make sense. Try call to Google support.
