In May of 2008 I wrote a post about the hard time I had signing up for online storage Xdrive and it’s become one of my most popular posts to date.  As an update to that post, Xdrive will be closing down on January 12, 2009.

I received a good amount of comments on that post and slowly there were whispers that they may be closing down.  Those whispers would later become true and there was no reason to sign up for a dying service.  The horrible thing about this is my post was acknowledged by Xdrive and they replied to me by saying that they were working on a new registration process.

Xdrive made it simple enough to get your files by offering you a zip file of all your files after you login, but the zip file took a while to be created.  I was able to get all my Xdrive files but the overall experience with Xdrive was not a pleasant one at all.

Good Riddance to Xdrive
