OneDrive is Microsoft's cloud service where you can save all types of files to have them synchronized between multiple computers and to always have them available online even from smartphones and tablets. OneDrive is certainly one of the best together with Dropbox and Google Drive, already integrated in Windows 8 and Windows 10 PCs and Windows Phone smartphones.
When you sign up for Onedrive (ex Skydrive) you get 15 GB of space and you only need a Microsoft account which, it is likely you already have if you are registered with Skype, Outlook.com or if you use a Windows Phone smartphone.
All users of Microsoft OneDrive can now add 100 GB of additional space for free .
This offer from Microsoft is linked to the promotion of the preview of the new Onedrive and as it is temporary, you must take advantage of it immediately.
The 100 GB of extra space for Onedrive will be free for the next two years .
This means that after two years the free Onedrive account space will return, unless changed, to the initial level of 15 GB.
To claim this 100 GB free storage bonus all you have to do is click here, log in to your account and press the button to authorize the application.
You can also add an additional 100 GB space bonus on Onedrive if you have a Dropbox account.
Then register with Dropbox if it has not already been done, then open here, authorize Onedrive to connect to Dropbox and get the 100 GB as a gift.
In this case, however, the duration of the additional space is limited to one year.
It must be said that although the 100 GB are only free for two years, it will be unlikely that Microsoft will delete the stored data after the completion of the second year.
In addition, two years is a rather long period and Microsoft could also increase the free space to at least 50 GB or otherwise decrease the prices of online storage.
Even for those who are using other cloud storage services such as Dropbox, this is a golden opportunity to switch to OneDrive whose 100 GB become really useful, as well as for professional needs, also for backing up personal files and photos .
