Ever noticed that surfing websites in New Zealand is faster than overseas?
The reality is that New Zealand is quite a long way away from the rest of the world and the speed of our links to the rest of the world are not exactly perfect.
So when it comes to using a service that involves uploading and downloading large amounts of data, doing it locally is best.
Storage On-Demand is a New Zealand based online storage service for anyone who can answer 'yes' to any of the following:
I need an off-site backup facility with 24x7 access.
I have remote workers who need to access shared files, without a VPN.
I backup my important files to CD/DVD, but that disc is just sitting on my desk.
I'm going to be traveling for a while, but need access to all my work files while I'm away.
I have a laptop and I worry that it will get stolen or damaged and I'll lose my data.
I need to backup to an online service for availability, but also copy to disc for long term archive.

How big is 1 Gigabyte?
An 8 Megapixel (MP) digital camera will generate files around 2.5 Megabytes (MB) in size.
So you could store over 400 full-resolution digital photos with 1 Gigabyte of storage on NZDrive.
