Computer Fundamentals - Cloud Storage - What is Online Storage and How Does it Work Explained Google

What is the cloud? How does it work? I'll explain it in easy terms and how you'll actually use it. Most people use the cloud for storage. Microsoft OneDrive is my favorite cloud storage, because it can link to your File Explorer on your Windows 10 PC. I use a CLOUD acronym to explain what the cloud is. The cloud is great because it can be accessed from Smartphone, Laptop, Tablet, or Desktop. Signing up for OneDrive is easy, check out my video on it. Make sure you make a good password, enter your personal information, and you'll be set for a OneDrive account. Google Drive has 15GB of Storage. OneDrive offer 5GB of storage for free. Dropbox has 2GB of free storage. You can get more storage by referring others to dropbox and OneDrive. iCloud is great for all of the Apple iPhone users. The cloud is offsite, which has its advantages and disadvantages. Check them out in this video!

Thank you. I feel smarter. I have avoided the cloud for years but now understand it's benefits.

[lynnl]

Great starter for someone with NO understanding of the Cloud. Thanks.

[beefandpotatoes]

No waste of time talking irrelevant, calm, slow enough to be followed. Thank you so much Adam.

[cassandraroyal]

I like how you broke it down using the acronym. It make sit easy to remember.

[philhart]

I've been putting off learning about the cloud for some time. I think I always understood the benefits of it, but just didn't know how to use it. I now need to learn more about different things like one sync and how they work in unison.

[lolzjeni]

I am actually in college for phlebotomy and this video is linked in our discussion. It's actually very good and informative without being too tech-y. I've used the cloud for years and I've honestly never knew what it was. Thank you for making this video!!

[MobileDecay]

Now it's time to give you a lesson on the basics of sound. ^_^

[incredibleyou]

Thank you so much for this information. I had no idea what it was or how to use it. All I know is my phone is always out of storage. Lol. I appreciate your hard work.

[tossmeacarrot]

I'm glad I've found you. You're very clear, informative, and easy to listen to. Thanks.

A good explanation of what 'The Cloud' is all about - now all I need to know is how to use

[cherylstone]

Clearly explained, I'll scroll comments to pick up more hints, Thank you.

[mpellican]

Simple enough for me, a non-computer person. Thanks

[barbaragerman]

This was an excellent video on cloud storage! Well organized and the explanation was easy to understand. I appreciate the work you out into this and posting the info out to those of us who are learning!

[rainysunday]

What is even more secure is to save my data to external hard drive’s that way if my computer crashes I don’t lose any data because they’re on my external hard drive which is not part of my computer. And hackers can’t get access to it and less I can get access to my computer so no hacking and my data doesn’t go offsite.

[janpollock]

Very well explained with the notes shown as well. Just the right amount of info needed making it very easy to follow. I'm looking forward to watching the other YouTube videos.

[gabrielfono]

Can u storage large file video on Google drive.
For instance, let's say you recorded a video for 2 hours and you want to save it on your Google drive

[tcvtravel]

As this topic is aimed at total beginners including the more aged I think it would be helpful to just slow down the speech a little.
Thus is common with many tutorial for beginners

[DeepakGupta-uvoh]

Thanks Sir, these information are very important for us

[TheLordIsAble]

Excellent.  Brief and to the point.  Thank you.
