Hey,

Does anybody use this? I still want to use my USB stick for certain files for ease of use. Does this program actually work properly and can it be used to sync any changes I make on my usb stick to my dropbox?

Thanks!

Anyone?

I've not tried it but I like the idea of it.

The only thing is using Dropbox along with a USB stick sort of defeats the philosophy behind Dropbox. Pretty much any computer I use now has Internet access so I have access to my files thru the web interface.

I see what you mean but its more for the simplicity of opening computer programs and html/css files. These cannot be opened without downloading all related files. If I have my USB synced with my dropbox I can simply open the html file and everything will already be linked to it, without having to download every single file. For everything else it's fine without usb stick

Thanks

Why don't you try it out for yourself, and let the rest of us know how you get on?

I don't trust it to be honest and I don't want to cause problems with files. So wanted to see if anybody uses it first.

Well, it's rather stating the obvious that you'd use non-critical data through any testing period.

The reason why I posted this thread, was just to ask if anybody uses it now. But as it is clear there isn't anyone I might test it myself.

I use this on my USB stick for all of my college work and it's been absolutely fine. Never corrupted my data (used it for over 2 years now), would definitely recommend.

Just what I needed, thanks very much
