File storage is one of the most used applications that Internet offers on these days, this is a guide how to use a Gmail account as storage drive.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  1. Step 1

    Create a Gmail account on Google signing in on this link http://mail.google.com/, its pretty simple and offers 7Gb space for free so you wont need to delete any emails besides it´s very safe and I use it already for years.

  2. Step 2

    Go to Fileforum on this link http://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/GMail_Drive/1097807577/1 and download GMail Drive 1.0.13. It will download as a zip/rar folder which you will have to open, don ´t worry there is no spy or ad ware.
