Yeah, that's how they can offer so much space - that's for backups only really.

It is the same as many other backup services. For example, I am with Backblaze (who I would recommend 100 times over) and they work the same. Personally, I would use Zoolz for the hell of it, but I would still remain with Backblaze. €3.80 for literally unlimited storage per month, with unlimited NAS/HDDs and the like.

If you want, I will PM you the referral link, for a discount and some months free.

Signed up last evening and immediately got an email saying I was ~52000th in the queue.

Just got another one telling me I'm now at 49128 so it could take a week or two yet.

It is true, this is how Amazon Glacier service works . It is designed to be a very low cost backup for seldom or rarely accessed files.

Odd, I signed up on Chrome just now, gives me a link to register email address, which I think is standard.

I'm a little bit excited about this I guess

But I've just saw this on their Facebook page

"Great news Zoolzers! We have registered thousands of accounts throughout this weekend, so the queue will be decreasing shortly and the first applicants ought to receive their complimentary 100 GB of free cloud storage promptly. We thank you for your patience and have a great Monday! Sign up from www.zoolz.com"


Sadly I didn't receive anything, Anyone here received anything?

It's a Javascript overlay/pop up. You might have some adblock or something preventing it displaying?

Tar.Aldarion

I don't but thanks for the info, will investigate.

Tar, check your PM.

Did you check the link that shows you your position in the queue?
Plain text email address anyone?

MOH

Registered, it told me there were 0 people in front of me and 0 behind.
Tried again a while later, and there's 47000+, as expected.

They also don't support Linux.

I'm a bit confused as to how it takes 3-5 hours to restore files, if you can also view them online? Unless the 3-5 refers to bulk restores.

I think I'll be sticking with Crashplan.
