It’s not particularly affordable compared to other services-users get 5 GB of storage for free, but 50 GB is $1 per month, 200 GB is $3 per month, and 2 TB is $10 per month, and there are no annual plans-but it’s hard to argue with the scope and functionality it provides. And that is a big deal.įor those unfamiliar, iCloud is Apple’s cloud storage service. But for now, both OneDrive and iCloud, as weird as that sounds, offer first-class, reliable cloud/desktop sync capabilities in Windows 10. And I’m curious now whether other cloud-based storage vendors-Dropbox, Box, and so on-will adopt this technology in Windows 10 as well. Big deal, right? Well, there is one surprise: This version of the app differs from the normal web-based download in that it supports the same underlying sync technology as OneDrive’s Files On-Demand.
Yesterday, Microsoft announced the release of iCloud for Windows 10 in the Microsoft Store.
