July 30, 2008 at 01:26Overview of Russian file hosting
Habra-public is offered a brief overview of local file storages. Since the concept is rather vague today, all resources that meet a simple requirement are on the list: you can store any type of file on the service.
Yandex people
narod.yandex.ru
Probably, from the domestic file storages this, as they say, is “the most heard”.
Many have heard about the charms, but for the sake of order: the total size is not limited, the maximum file size is 5 GB. You can upload multiple files at once. You can share the file through a link, you can protect it with a password for your favorites, and you can embed it in blogs and forums. All files are scanned by antivirus (dr Web), without which they are not available for download.
Files are stored for 90 days, but this period can be extended (a notification letter arrives), the period is automatically extended if someone downloaded the file.
If your provider supports the Yandex program “local area network”, the traffic goes as an internal network.
A test file of 85 MB in size was downloaded for 55 seconds, downloaded for 46 seconds.
IPLoad
ipload.ru
As it is written - free file hosting.
Free on it - 500 MB of space for files (this is the maximum file size), a shelf life of 30 days, while registration is not required. Registered users can write comments on files and protect them with a password.
In addition, there are VIP users who can, for example, buy 48 GB for a month for 48 USD. VIPs have access to FTP, no speed limits and other pleasant things. For example, do not wait 30 seconds before downloading a file.
What is interesting - the owners of the resource pay registered users for ... downloading their files. So for 1000 downloads of your file you will be credited 10 USD. It is a pity that you can spend this money only on paid services of IPLoad itself.
There is a separate download for the photo, apparently, it should somehow be especially displayed. And it seems that the same thing is for the video, but clicking on it brings you to something like YouTube from IPLoad, though the last video was uploaded there back in the fall of 2007.
For some reason, downloading a test file of 85 MB did not work, but smaller files (5-9 MB) loaded very quickly. But the download speed was around 5 Kb / s. I didn’t wait, cut it off.
QLocker
qlocker.ru
A difficult case. Rather like something like YouTube for files. Files are poured into folders called “lockers” here. But the “locker” is not only a folder, but also a page with files, there are minimal tools for its design. At the same time, media files are immediately displayed in the players (video, music, photos), you can put the whole thing into playlists and slide shows.
The storage space for personal files is 500 MB, and for public ones it is not limited. The flash loader loads files up to 100 MB in size, and if there are restrictions on the simultaneous download, I did not notice them. Files are added to the download queue during the download.
For all uploaded files and "lockers" (except personal and for friends) there is a search and ratings on the main page. You can throw links to files, import them into blogs, etc.
Another interesting feature is the community. Those. you can organize a community to which any registered user can join (there are also closed ones), then make a “locker” for it and any of the project users can collect any content in such a “locker” with you.
Judging by the small number of users and frequent bugs, the project is still quite young. But interesting - at least gnawing curiosity: how they will survive, how to earn money and how to deal with legal problems.
A test file of 85 MB in size was downloaded for 15 (!) Seconds (apparently, I was alone on the site ), though on the second attempt. Downloaded 81 seconds.
Nextmail
nxt.ru
As you might guess from the name, file storage is not the main functionality here. But, nevertheless, along with the mailbox, hosting with a third-level domain name and a place for storing files are offered for free.
1 GB is allocated for everything, there is FTP access to the file storage. Via a web-based interface, you can upload files up to 50 MB in size.
A test file of 85 MB in size was downloaded for 87 seconds, downloaded 51 seconds.
In principle, there is more hosting for sites than for files, but a separate interface for working with files (like WC or NC) has secured a place for the project in the review.
On the main page is a list of upcoming changes for ... June. So, perhaps, the service is already experiencing a certain crisis, but maybe everything is just on vacation.
Funnyyyy
www.funnyyyy.ru
The authors of this resource, no doubt, know how to come up with such a name so that the domain is free. If you believe the user agreement, the service is located in the Republic of Latvia, but is focused on Russian users, judging by the zone ru and the Russian language.
In addition to the usual storage of files, the service offers users something truly exclusive - the ability to trade their own files. But it is available only to "advanced" users. A sign of advancement is a monthly fee of 1 USD.
In exchange, the "advanced" get 1 GB of disk space (against 100 MB of ordinary users), lower commission for withdrawing earned money, the ability to increase disk space (1 GB / 1USD once a month). The limit on the size of the downloaded file is 2 GB.
The site has a referral structure, i.e. even if you came from the outside, you must choose a top-level referral that will receive a portion of the money you spend.

Payers have unlimited disk space, file password, no speed limits, multi-threaded downloads, in addition, they can make the link to their files accessible only from certain sites. The cost of a paid account is very affordable - 2.61 USD.
A test file of 85 MB in size was downloaded for 221 seconds, downloaded 748 seconds, and the captcha was entered only from the fifth time, although it was difficult to make a mistake there (I'm sure I was not mistaken).
The files have a search, a tag cloud, a gallery of the last ones uploaded on the main page. Images can be combined into albums, and you can upload multiple files directly to the photo album.
Rapidshara (en)
rapidshare.ru
