In modern business conditions, you need to make more and more free services in order to survive. Well, let's enjoy it for free, especially if these products are really simple and convenient.
One of the Moscow Internet providers has introduced an instant file exchange service with a capacity of no more than 50 GB. Therefore, if you are looking for a file hosting service without registration, this is a good option.
Meet: Dropmefiles.com
Unlike many other file hosting services, this service, as already written, does not require registration.
Also, from its advantages:
- File sharing up to 50 GB;
- Ability to set a download password;
- The ability to choose the type of link that will be easy to dictate orally, for example, over the phone;
- No restrictions on download speed;
- Sending a link not only by email, but also .
And now, first things first.
How to upload files?
Dropmefiles.com - how to download files
Well, if it was difficult before, it will be even easier here :). Just follow the link that was sent to us and press the button "Download".
If you don’t have a link, it wasn’t sent to you, and you won’t be able to download the file.
By the way, files from the service are downloaded really quickly. It is also worth remembering that if you upload files to the site, the resource does not limit the download speed of files up to 4.5 GB in size, but the Internet provider can do this. It happens that the declared speed of 100 Mbit/s only applies to DOWNLOADING. And for output, for example, 10 or 15 Mbit/s. Then the file may not load very quickly and there is nothing you can do about it.
So: figuring out how to use dropmefiles.com is very easy. In addition, it saves time and emotions. Let's hope this service continues to be simple and free.
I can't upload files to Dropmefiles
Although I personally have never had a problem with this service, research has shown that there can be two main reasons for the failure:
- Unstable Internet connection. Please note that the service does not support file resuming mode. That is, if you are downloading a 30 GB file and the network is suddenly interrupted, it is very sad, but you will have to download the file first.
- According to reports in
Once again, we welcome everyone to our site for beginners. On the Internet, one way or another, we exchange files, archives, photographs, music, videos, etc. with each other. The exchange can be carried out by mail, Skype, social networks and other possible methods. But this is convenient if the files are small and do not require much time to exchange: a photo, a small file, a program. And if this is a large archive, a fragment of video, then the transfer may take a long time. In this case, services called file sharing services will help us. This is a portal where you first upload your data, a link will be generated that you send to your acquaintances and friends. By clicking on your link, they can safely download your files. There are many such services, the same one, OneDrive, Cloud Mail and others. But they have a condition: you must be authorized in it.

Today we bring to your attention a useful compilation cheat sheet that will always and everywhere help you find the best way to transfer a large file to a person.
Email is convenient, but many popular email services impose serious restrictions on the size of attachments. For example, in Gmail and Outlook, each individual file cannot exceed 25 MB in size.
You can refuse mail in favor of a more flexible solution, but if for one reason or another this cannot be done, then a simple freeware multi-platform utility will help you HJ-Split. With its help, the source file is divided into pieces of the required size and inserted/transferred in parts, after which it is just as easily glued together on the recipient’s side.
Classic web storage
If the file is generally large, then cloud storage may be the best solution: Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive and their analogues. Preference for one or another service here, as a rule, is given depending on habit, but in extreme cases it is necessary to look at the maximum capabilities of each storage facility.
OneDrive allows you to upload a file with a maximum size of up to 2 GB.
"Yandex.Disk" has a limit of 10 GB, but if you need to download something heavier than 2 GB, you will need a desktop client.
Google Drive in this regard, it is much more powerful and eats up a file up to 5 TB (5,000 GB). Naturally, large files here also need to be downloaded through the client.
It is difficult to imagine a situation in which a user would not have enough Google Drive capabilities, but, just in case, Dropbox There is no designated limit on the size of one file at all. Do you have a desktop client? Go ahead, upload all the Internets of the world to it! In the last two cases, the limitation is not the file size, but the size of the personal storage.
Paranoid's Corner
Fans of increased privacy should pay attention to the freemium service WeTransfer. It does not ask for registration and allows you to transfer a file up to 2 GB in size almost anonymously directly from the browser, knowing only the recipient’s email. The file uploaded here will be stored for seven days.
Superparanoid's Corner
All the methods described above have one drawback: in order to transfer something, you need to upload this “something” somewhere. Simply put, your data will be temporarily (or forever) stored on remote servers. If this prospect does not suit you, then there remains an option called JustBeamIt, based on the peer-to-peer principle. The transferred file will not be uploaded anywhere, but will go directly from you to the recipient. The service's web shell supports Drag&Drop and is very easy to use. We drag the file, get a link (link lifespan is 10 minutes), transfer it to the recipient in any acceptable way.
Another P2P transfer method is a service called Infinite. In addition to everything that the previous tool can do, Infinit supports stopping/resuming downloads, and in the case of transferring video files, it allows you to start watching immediately after the start of the transfer.
Skype and other instant messengers
Modern and not so modern messengers cope quite successfully with file transfer. In this case, the maximum file size depends on the specific service used. For example, the most popular Skype, although slow, works on the same P2P principle and, in fact, has no limit on the size of the transferred file.
This material only covers methods associated with the use of truly popular products and services. There are many other cloud storages, FTP and dozens more more or less convenient ways to transfer a large file. If you have your own elegant and simple option for transferring large amounts of data, share it in the comments.
There are many ways to send a file to someone over the Internet, and anyone who does this chooses the most obvious method - sending it by email. But there is a limit on the file size, usually 25 MB; some programs in .exe format are unlikely to be sent due to security restrictions. Unless by placing them in the archive. Many people use Skype for transfers; there are no restrictions on file size, but the transfer is not very fast, regardless of the network speed. I never waited for the end of the transfer of large files, but used other tools, which I will discuss below.
Clouds have been part of our lives for quite a long time and obviously this is the most understandable way to transfer any files. All popular email services have their own cloud.
Gmail has this Google Drive– initially 15 GB are available for free, excellent integration with all google services and excellent speed. Yandex mail has its own disk 10 GB expandable. Install the Yandex disk application on your smartphone and enable auto-upload of photos, you will get +32 GB. There is an interesting screenshot feature that saves them immediately to Yandex Disk. With the ability to edit and design screenshots taken. Mail from Mile boasts cloud 50 GB for new users, previously it was possible to reserve 100 GB, this is perhaps all the advantages. The most secure cloud at the moment Mega with 50 GB free, file encryption, cool interface and decent speed.
Didn't mention the most popular founder current Dropbox only because its meager 2GB is inherently unsuitable for transferring large files. Yes, and there are a lot of different clouds with different conditions; in my opinion, I talked about the most popular ones in RuNet.
Transferring files this way has a number of advantages and disadvantages:
- To send a file, you must first place it on the storage server, and this is not always convenient; it takes time and sufficient free space.
- In conjunction with mail - good integration and the ability to simply give access to the file to third parties, or place it in the public domain.
- The cloud services themselves offer a tool for viewing and editing some files.
- In the case of Mega, encryption is the default and the key is passed in the link to the recipient.
- The file is accessible as long as it is in the cloud.
Transfer in a browser window
There are quite a few such methods, I’ll tell you about those that have been proven to work, there are no restrictions on the size of the transferred file, and they are also simple and understandable.
Dropmefiles.com
Perhaps the most functional service for moving large files. All functionality is in one window, with convenient tips and a clear layout of controls.
- Drag the desired file or folder into the browser window, click to select on your computer, or use ctrl+v to paste from the clipboard.
- Copy the link to send in a way convenient for you. Or send directly by mail adding a message of up to 140 characters.
- Store the file on the service for up to 14 days or send it directly without closing the browser window.
- Ability to set a password, alphabetic or numeric.
- The speed of the service is quite good, of course, depending on your provider.
File.pizza
A very simple service for transferring any files directly from the browser; transfer is possible only when the window is open. And until the file is downloaded from the link received. If you need to send a file to multiple users, you will have to do it personally each time. This technology features you transfer the file directly without uploading to a third-party server.
- The file is sent directly, excluding uploading to the server, p2p connection as a torrent.
- Select or drag the desired file to transfer into the browser window.
- Doesn't work in mobile safari.
- Otherwise, charming and safe.
BitTorrent sync
Your personal torrent network, the operation of which requires a bittorent sync client, fortunately there is support for ALL platforms, including drives and other cloud devices. The program’s capabilities for exchanging and transferring files are impressive; you can read it in detail and very clearly. I will say that the speed is really good, encryption and file transfer directly make this method especially attractive. Such glowing praise is marred by only two aspects: the indecent price of 2,499 rubles/year for the PRO version (although you can get by with the FREE version) and slightly confusing controls for an inexperienced user.
Anonymous method
Absolutely amazing free and anonymous service anonymousfiles.io transfer files up to 5 GB. Drag or select files from your computer. Get the link share the link.
You cannot delete downloaded files, but you can determine their lifetime up to 6 months. No logs or restrictions for uploading and downloading. Amazing and free secure exchange method.
Opinion
Every day we are getting closer to the fact that we perform most of the tasks in the browser; transferring large files over the network also moved to the browser window, moved to the cloud, or, as in the case of bittorent sync, mastered p2p networks and key encryption. Streams move in the 21st century with incredible speed and scale, and humanity has come up with plenty of tools for this!
If you know of others that are fundamentally different from those presented, write in the comments - it will be interesting!
One of the pressing problems of any person today is the question of how to send heavy files via the Internet without sitting in front of a computer for twenty years. This question is especially relevant for those who work remotely, for photographers, etc. Sometimes you need to send files several gigabytes in size.
But how can I send such a heavy file? should I do something with it? Squeeze, squeeze, crush into pieces? And how not to lose the quality of the file? After all, if you split the video, the receiving party simply will not be able to assemble such a file later.
Today there are several ways to transfer heavy files, including videos:
- through the download site - Yandex.disk, mail.ru cloud, etc.;
- via mail server;
- through communication and video calling systems Skype, Viber
When working with any file hosting service, the user must first of all find out what the maximum possibility of sending or uploading files is. Because Sometimes you need to upload a file up to 50 Gigabits in size. Information about this can be seen on the file download site itself. You should look at the information “about the site” or the “tariffs” tab. Here is an example of Yandex Disk.
It should be noted right away that you will not be able to attach a large video file to an email. The maximum that is available to the user in almost any mail server is sending files up to 20-50 MB in size. Another way to send a heavy file:
- compress into an archiver with maximum loss of quality;
- split into several components by the archiver.
For a video file this is inconvenient and laborious. When unpacking so many files, the overall video puzzle may not come together. That is, the maximum that is available to the user is sending links. A large file will not be sent via mail. The mail server itself will warn the consumer about this even when tabping any letter.
5 most popular options for sending gigafiles
So, what services today help users quickly and efficiently send any file of any capacity? How long can the download take? What does it depend on?
When working with any file upload or transfer servers, the user should remember several features of working with large files:
- If the Internet speed on one side is low, then fast transmission will not work;
- If you need to hide files from prying eyes, then you need to set a password for access or transfer the link only to a certain circle of people;
- You should definitely check with the other party to see if the service is blocked in their country. Thus, access to mail.ru is often closed in Western European countries.
The first miracle option is the mail.ru cloud
As statistics show, the majority of network users in the 25-35 year old group use the mail.ru service. This service essentially has two ways to send files.
- using the cloud;
- using automatic uploading to the “files” tab - up to 1 gig in size.
If the user is registered and has mail.ru mail, then his forwarding capabilities will look like this. By the way, you can register and create your own mailbox using the following link mail.ru mailbox registration
If the file does not exceed 25 MB, then it is completely included in the letter. Next comes a warning that all files with a chain icon will be sent as links.
And when another user receives a letter with files larger than 25 MB, you need to remember that files should be downloaded immediately and not postponed if they were sent this way. The files sent as links will be indicated directly in the letter, and the storage period for these files will also be indicated. After the expiration date, the files will be destroyed.
By the way, sending files using regular mail and downloading files is a slower method than working with cloud mail.ru. it’s very easy to find, and if you have a mailbox, you won’t have to register in the cloud.
The cloud has a lot of additional amenities, which in its own way will make it easier to work with large volumes of information.
- free volume of stored information - the first 100Gigs!!!
- ability to create folders;
- the ability to set limited access to a file, folder to a person or group of people;
- high download speed.
Like most modern download servers, it is possible to download not only applications for iPhone or Android, but also for PCs.
In order to send a link to another user, you need to click the “send link” button and set the necessary parameters, taking into account access. But first, you should select the folder or file to which a link will be provided. It will not be possible to select several files and folders at once, which is of course inconvenient.
Another option is sharing. The user can create a folder where he can share access to several people at once. This is convenient for group work and there is no need to constantly send new links to a large number of people. To do this, just click the “Set up access” button and then click “Open access”. Select a folder and click the “configure access” button again.
After this, the user makes the settings himself. Lists all emails. addresses of those who can view this folder. It also indicates whether the invited person can edit or view files.
The second miracle - Yandex disk and its capabilities
The program also has great capabilities for downloading and sending heavy files. Yandex disk. You can familiarize yourself with the rules, tariffs, and download the application to your smartphone or computer using the link -.
This file hosting service allows you to download and save files directly while browsing the Internet, and save files in full size from sites, that is, without opening a new tab with a fully loaded image. True, the amount of free storage here is very small - only 10 gigs, but the cost of storing large files is very small.
The first stage of working with this file hosting service is registration. Nothing complicated, you can log in via social networks. A password is created. It is also not necessary to provide a phone number.
The principle of operation is approximately the same as in the cloud. It is possible to create folders and share them. The interface is not entirely convenient after the cloud. One distinctive feature is that there is a “social networks” tab. By logging in with your password through a social network, the user can automatically download all photos from the social network immediately to Yandex disk. The quality of the source code will not be the same.
At the same time, there is no way to select a folder in the same contact from which you want to download files. There is a choice between downloading ALL folders or downloading photos with me. Since there can be a lot of photo albums, this is inconvenient. But the download is very fast, with good home Internet speed.
Transferring files via Skype
In this sense, Skype is similar to most social networks. That is, if the speed is high on the receiving side and on the sending side, if there are no restrictions on the Internet provider for sending and receiving files, then it can and will be possible to quickly send a file. But in comparison with the capabilities of Yandex Disk or the Mail.ru cloud, Skype obviously loses.
To send files, no additional registration or downloading of installation files is required. Just click the “transfer file” button and select directly the file that will be transferred.
Feature - if there were interruptions in electricity or Internet signal, the transfer will be interrupted and you will have to start the transfer again and there is a possibility that the file will arrive damaged or not be sent at all.
The size and number of files you can send in Skype is unlimited. This is the only plus of working with this program.
Easy sending via Odnoklassniki
Just like in Skype, sending the number and size of files is positioned as unlimited. But the problem is that millions of people are on social networks at the same time, everyone listens to music and watches videos. File download may be slow. Plus, the content of the embedded video (especially for public viewing) is checked by moderators. Over time, it can be removed without even asking permission.
You can transfer a file through Odnoklassniki in the following ways:
- by uploading via private message;
- by uploading it to your page and making it limited access.
In the latter case, another user will need to have a program to download files from Odnoklassniki. To send, just click the “add video” button in messages, upload it to the message and click the send envelope.
Uploading heavy files via filedropper
There are situations when the user to whom files are sent has very limited access to both social networks and any Russian-language storage sites. In this case, you can transfer large files to him only through a foreign resource. The file hosting service most often used today is filedropper. Its capabilities are also limited - no more than 5 gigs for free.
The second limiting nuance is the English language. Either you need to use the site through Google Translator for sites, or ask someone with the language. But, if you have minimal school knowledge, then that is enough. But You can upload a file WITHOUT registration and its size is just up to 5 gigs.
In the example below there is an automatic translation into Russian, so you can immediately see what is written on the site. Filedropper makes it possible to get a download link right away and immediately makes it possible to post this link on any forum, which is also extremely convenient.
With such an abundance of possibilities, today sending any, even the heaviest, file is not a problem. You just need to choose a method and service.
