What can I use Jungle Disk for?

Jungle Disk makes it easy to store any data securely online, and access it from any computer just like a local disk drive.
Jungle Disk is even better than adding a larger hard drive or an external USB drive to your system:

  • You get unlimited capacity
  • You don't pay for space you're not using
  • A USB or local hard drive will fail 15% of the time within 5 years
  • Your data is secure in Amazon.com datacenters, where it is safe from fire, computer crashes, and viruses

Use it for:
  • Backing up your important files
    • Photos
    • Home movies
    • Music
    • Business records
    • Address Book
    • E-mail history
  • Sharing files between computers
    • Easily move large files between work and home
    • Share files with friends and family
  • Freeing up space on your computer hard drive
    • Move seldom used files to online storage
    • Have an unlimited capacity drive for your music, movie, and photo collections
