Before the invention of the desk top computer and well before the advent of the internet, large files within companies were shared like this:-
Throughout the evening shift in computer rooms around the world computer operators would spend a few hours running 'sorts' with 2400ft tapes calculating the days sales or productivity of the day and producing thousands of pages of 'music rule' printouts which would then be carried to various departments or couriered by motorcyclists to branches early in the morning all over the country.
Within the next forty years the rate of change has been as powerful as the 19th century Industrial Revolution. After tapes there followed hard drives and although these appeared to call an end to tapes it did not entirely do so as tapes continued to be used for storage. The first disks were removable 14 inch platters with the then amazing storage capacity of 3.5 megabytes. Almost simultaneously fixed disks the size of a very large wardrobe arrived with only a slightly improved capacity. Still it was necessary that any sharing of information or files was only achieved with hard copy print outs.
The race for more storage began with the arrival of the P.C. and in particular the later arrival of the internet. One of the greatest advances in computer hardware is the advancement of disc storage technology easily explained by the fact that in the 1970's it would take a huge purpose built 'clean' computer room filled with hundreds of disk drives all the size of washing machines to store what you can now store on your P.C.
Unbelievably, despite the giant leaps in disc storage technology one of the biggest concerns in the computer world today is a worry that information storage is increasing faster than the servers can cope with. With 84 billion emails being sent daily around the world and nearly all of it being stored somewhere on a hard drive 4 billion MB of extra storage is required daily. File share or file sharing simply means extra storage somewhere ready to be retrieved sometime in the future. More information is stored daily than is destroyed. Using
online file storage drive
is one solution to this problem but using an online file storage drive also means that valuable space may be used redundantly. Where as directly sending files to the recipient may free up that space.This ever increasing explosion of storage is precisely why internet providers are relatively mean with their private customers free storage size and also explains why they are so mean with their email attachment size allowance.
My File Sender can be a huge help to anyone wanting that extra emailing capacity by assisting at rock bottom rates to send those large files. The days of sending by courier great lumps of music rule printouts around the country or around the world are well over. There should never be need for vast printouts again as the new method of file sharing is sorted for you by My File Sender.
