I always used to think about what if I had infinite cloud storage. But of course, it's not possible until you're the CEO of GOOGLE :)

Rest assured, I tried different cloud storages such as:-

  • Google Drive

  • Mega

  • OneBox

  • TeraBox and many more...

Everyone had their plans and nothing was working until Telegram was launched. It's an Indian cloud-based, cross-platform, encrypted instant messaging service but with unlimited storage unlike Whatsapp.

So now if I want to upload any files, I just upload them there free of cost, and they are also safe there.

But what about large folders or files, how could I even upload them because there's a catch of uploading, one file should not be more than 2GB.

Now, this can be achieved by WINRAR.

Configuring the Winrar settings.

  • Step 1 : Open the winrar application.

  • Step 2 : Go to Options > Settings or just hold the Ctrl + S.

  • Step 3 : In the settings window go to the Compression tab and under compression profiles, click on the Create Default… button.

  • Step 4: Now navigate to the Bottom Left part of the screen and under Split to volumes, size subheading type the maximum size into which you want to break down your files.

  • Now, let's say you have a file for 10 GB, so according to the value set in the above picture, we will get 10/2 = 5 files.

Good Luck!
