Bitcasa – the endless hard drive space

Every time we put files on computers we lose space. Therefore, we are always eager to save space for important files. The solution to conserving space for future files is a software called Bitcasa.

The Bitcasa makes the capacity of your computer’s hard drive basically infinite when installed. Founded in 2011 by former employees of Mastercard, VeriSign and Mozy, Bitcasa offers infinite storage paired with best in class security via client-side encryption. Hard disk space are always increasing in size (started from Megabytes and now Terabytes), nevertheless we constantly store data which runs the capacity down in no time.

Bitcasa only works on Apple computers but the Windows version is being developed, as well as mobile apps for smart phones and tablets Bitcasa founders say. There will also be a cost associated with this software service. The software makes files stored on cloud servers seem as if they are on the physical hard disk drive inside a computer. Anytime a file browser is opened, files are loaded as if they are locally located on that particular hard drive. This means as a file stored in Bitcasa’s cloud is opened it appears instantly to minimize the effects of missing and slow connections.

Importance of Bitcasa include infinite storage on your desktop, smarter data storage, safer data storage, no syncing and data copying, instant data sharing and high data security. Bitcasa is now your new hard drive and you don’t need to copy files unto external drives or flash drives anywhere you go because they are on the Bitcasa drive.

The interesting characteristic about this software is its ability to share files and photos of any size instantly. Just make sure your password is not known to anyone in order to secure your data.
