Comodo is now offering 5GB of free online storage which means you can not only store all your important files, MP3’s, Videos and images on Comodo but you will also be able to access it from virtually anywhere using an internet connection.

Online storage is probably the best ways to keep a backup of your files. You can access those important files as and when required from anywhere in the world. Another smart way of using online storage is to keep important files (that you are working with) on the online storage drive, you can then access the files, modify it from anywhere and the file is always up to date.

There are quite a few sites that are offering free online storage like the dropbox which is currently offering 2GB of free space. With Comodo you get additional 3 GB which is an added advantage.
