Get free upgrade from 7 GB to 25 GB at SkyDrive, don't miss it.
Are you enjoying the 7GB free storage at Microsoft SkyDrive? How about upgrading it to 25GB for free? Learn more about how to upgrade your Microsoft SkyDrive from 7GB free storage to 25GB.
I was exploring the newly announced Google Drive cloud based storage and collaboration platform. I went back to my Microsoft SkyDrive account to write an article on how to compare Google Drive with Microsoft SkyDrive.
On the left panel of the SkyDrive web interface, I saw the message "7 GB" and also so the option "Manage Storage". What I remember was, Microsoft offer free 25GB storage at the SkyDrive. So, I clicked on the "Manage Storage" link to see where did my 25GB gone. Surprisingly, I saw that my current storage was reduced to 7GB but there is a button that says "Free Upgrade". There was a balloon popup with the message:
"For a limited time, loyal SkyDrive users can upgrade from 7 GB to 25 GB for free!"
Microsoft has not given any definition for what is loyal customer, but I assume all it means is you already have a Microsoft SkyDrive account.
