Yandex. Disk is a so-called cloud storage of data. Files in it are stored in the "cloud", which is a virtual server from several servers remote from each other. Thanks to this, the possibility of losing information stored on Yandex. Disk is practically excluded.
Since its launch in April 2012, Yandex. Disk has operated behind closed doors: only those who have left an application for a place to store data and have received an “invite” could become its user. During this time, about 400,000 users received the invitation. Since September 2012, access is open to everyone. Each new user gets 10 GB of storage for their files and can increase this volume by inviting new visitors.
The file storage can be accessed via mail on Yandex, using an application on a computer, or using the Yandex. Disk web interface. Disk space is free. You can upload files there individually or move them as a whole folder at once. The information will be stored there until you delete it yourself. During download, the data is checked by Dr. Web. Files in your folder on Yandex. Disk are always synchronized: if you make any changes to them, they will be reflected in the web interface or when accessed through other computers.
It is quite convenient to use the service from your computer. To access it, you just need to install a special client program. It will create a folder on your computer, and the files placed in it will be stored in the cloud.
The use of the data warehouse is also possible with the help of mobile devices. Recently, the Yandex. Disk application for Android and iOS has become available for download in Google Play and the App Store. After its installation and authorization on the resource, you can view the folders stored on the server on your phone or send files there.
Any information stored by Yandex. Disk can be shared with other users. To do this, you first need to enable public access to the files. Then, using the link you provided, the user will be able to download the data. The system will ask you to enter a simple 6-digit digital code from the picture, and if it is entered correctly, the download will begin in a few seconds.
