4GB File host

helmet · 25 Dec 2009 at 15:24

Hi,

does anyone know where i can host a 4GB file without splitting it up into small parts?
Got a video file I want to host but having trouble finding a website to host such large files.

Thanks and happy holidays.

No where I know of, if it's really important I might host it on my site for you

How about this? https://www.humyo.com/pages/en/free-online-file-storage

Also what's wrong with .rar-ing it?

You got a hotmail/windows live addy?

if you do then you have 25GB free file space on skydrive. www.skydrive.live.com

Buy your own server. But its not really viable cost wise.

Would a rapidshare account be any good? I think you can upload that much with a bought account....

Megashares, up to 10gb single files.

200MB limit.

4gb in a single size (depending if it goes over the limit or not) might present issues for people with certain file systems, FAT32 for example.

Sort yourself out with a decent webhost

Try http://www.register1.net

And factor in how long it will take to upload!

MeMeMeMe · 25 Dec 2009 at 19:28

4GB??? That would take around 40 hours to upload on my account!

asim18 · 25 Dec 2009 at 21:08

About 8 Hours to upload on a 1.3 megabit/s upload connection (eg. BE*).

It would take about 15 days for me, as virgin have capped my upload to about 25 kilobits/s. :mad:

you'd be better off creating a torrent and putting it on a public tracker. let the other people download it directly from your pc. of course this means you'll need to leave it on but if it's just one person it'll take no longer than uploading to a 3rd party host anyway.

How about Dropbox?

5gb file limit

Although as others have said, uploading the file will take a long time...

If you're sending it to someone , might actually be quicker to burn it to dvd and mail it in the post.

Buy a cheapo USB stick and post it

Not much help I know, but torrent sounds best to me. I've done it before.

Or a dvd, transferring large files is a pain, lots of placings just burn to cd and
post, its often quicker and more realiable (i.e if your net decideds to cut out half
way your kinda boned.

How many people are you wanting to distribute it to?

If you really need it hosting online and are out of options I have a bunch of space on my host can set you up some space for a little while if you want

This is what virtual servers are made for

get a cheap VPS most of them can be setup in minutes and no contract you just pay month to month and basic ones start <£10 a month with atleast 15gig storage.
