About a year ago, Yandex offered everyone a new service - Yandex.Disk, which is the so-called cloud data storage. It is designed to store user data on company servers. Initially, access to 3 GB of disk space is opened, and when simple conditions are met (installation of the nuclear program, uploading files to the server, inviting 2 friends), the size of the virtual disk increases to 10 GB. This is quite enough for storing important documents, photos, scripts, advisers or indicators for the MT4 terminal. In addition, for each next invited user, Yandex provides access to another 0.5 GB of space.
But there is another advantage with the Yandex.Disk service - the possibility of using it as a file sharing service. The service supports the ability to transfer files to other users. And set this function - general access, it is possible for each specific file. To provide access to download video tutorials:
- PAMM Investor - a free video course about;
- Managing trader - a training video about how;
- PAMM Partner - free video course about;
- Zulu Trader - video tutorial on how to make money on Forex in full;
- Mirror Trader - a free video course about from around the world;
which are already available on our website for website visitors, we used this service. In order to download courses, you just need to click on the link for the selected course and click on the Download button, specifying the necessary path to save the file:
But if you want to use all the benefits of the service, store your files on it, share with other users and do it all for free, then we recommend registering and installing Yandex.Disk on your computer, running a couple of simple conditions and getting at your disposal 10 GB of disk space.
Description of registration on the Yandex.Disk service.
The first step is to go to the website service disk.yandex.ru. An authorization form will open in the Yandex.Disk section (note that when you click on the proposed link, you will receive 1 G of additional space as a gift):

How to increase the volume of Yandex Disk for free - this question probably interests many. It is assumed that these "many" actively use this cloud service. I myself am from such ...
Small introductory lecture
The most advanced can miss ...
For those who work only from one computer or laptop, using Yandex Disk may not seem relevant. But this is a misconception. Let me explain with examples of several situations.
- When downloading files from the Web, it is often suggested to save the file to Yandex Disk. This means that the source is also located in this repository, and this saving occurs almost instantaneously - no need to wait until the volume load completes. There is no risk of breakage of the connection and other problems that suddenly arise ... Yes, of course, then you will save the file to your computer anyway, if necessary, but in any case it will not go away from you.
- You can also upload your files to Yandex Disk and share them with other people for downloading ... I often do this ...
- And imagine that you suddenly "flew" hDD. God forbid, of course, but it happens. And it is not always possible to restore some important files later. Serious trouble. But it can be avoided if you keep the most important on Yandex Disk.
These are just a few examples. Someone might say, they say, I use Cloud Mail.ru, Dropbox, Google drive etc ... That's it, I use them too. Just here I am talking specifically about Yandex Disk, so do not be distracted, comrades, from the main topic ...
My situation is not as simple as that of those who work from one computer or laptop. At least at work and a computer at home. Both there and there installed, so Yandex Disk I see as normal folders on your computer. This is all synchronized automatically and fairly quickly.
Something important — a document, a script, a picture — was thrown on the Yandex Disk at home, and in fact put in a folder, then came to work — and the file is already there, in the same folder. Well, and vice versa - from work home.
Everything is good, but the place on the Yandex Disk ends with the accumulation of any information there.
How to increase the volume of Yandex Disk for free
Initially, when you register, you get 10 GB forever. Those interested can purchase additional space, or increase it at the expense of various bonus tasks, such as inviting a friend, etc.
After a certain period of time, such a bonus place can be canceled.
However, now Yandex has launched a campaign on which it gives absolutely free another 32 GB to the volume of your Yandex Disk.
What do you need from you? Just install the Yandex Disk mobile application on your phone, enable automatic synchronization in its settings and upload at least one photo or video with it. After which the additional 32 GB of your space forever.
Period of the Campaign: from April 3, 2017 to July 3, 2017, 23:59 (Moscow time). So you still have time.
I learned about it only today and then by chance. I also installed a mobile application on my smartphone, turned on sync and took a picture of my desktop ... The file was downloaded to Yandex Disk, but no additional space was added.
As it turned out, we need to wait some time. Just in case I closed the application and just took a photo. She also unloaded on Yandex Disk. It was already about 10 minutes after the first photo taken right in the app. And it was here that I received a notification that the space of my Yandex Disk has increased by 32 GB forever.
A shorter, but no less expressive and joyful warning was highlighted on the smartphone ...
And here is the information of my Yandex Disk:
I'm not really happy.
If I'm not mistaken, there was a time Yandex Disk gave and a terabyte ... I somehow did not find it or missed it. But 32 GB is also not bad.
I wrote to ensure that those of you who need it, suddenly did not miss such a wonderful opportunity.
Good luck and see you on our blogs.
Today, no one is surprised cloud services. Increasingly, users prefer to store their documents, photos, archives in the network. You can also get free Yandex disk up to 20 GB. This is a great opportunity to store and share files.
Do you need this? if you have mailbox Yandex, then you can already use personal cloud storage without any additional actions. So why not take advantage of this opportunity.
This is an introductory article on working with the Yandex service for storing and sharing files. In it, we will look at what Yandex Disk is, its main features, limitations, and some aspects of security.
What is Yandex Disk?
Yandex disk is a service provided by Yandex users for storing files. You have to understand that all your folders and files that you create on the Yandex disk are stored on the disk storage of the search service, in which you have a little space allocated. And you can work with it through the network. In fact, your files are stored on the Internet.
Yandex disk features
What opportunities will be at your disposal when using Yandex disk?
- File storage. This is the main function. this service. You can place anything on your disk: documents, archives, programs, books, photos, music, movies, etc. There are some restrictions on file size, but read on.
- File Sync. When you install the special program Yandex.Disk, an exact copy will be created on your computer cloud storage. In this case, you can change files directly on the Yandex disk or in its local copy. The system itself will maintain both structures in the same state.
- Sharing files and folders. A feature that is fundamental to many users. Have you ever transferred large archives to anyone? By e-mail you will not send, transfer to the flash drive is problematic. There is a way out. You upload everything you need to your Yandex disk and send the link. And that one downloads the expected file to it on your PC.
- Organization of collaboration. The service allows you to share your favorite users to any folder on your "network drive". You can upload there the files of the project you are working on together and see all the changes made by its members.
- Making Screenshots. This feature is available only from the Yandex.Disk program. A screenshot is a screen shot of your computer. If you need to help a colleague deal with the program or send the designer an adjustment to the layout of the advertising banner, do so. Open a program or banner, take a screenshot, and directly on it draw and write explanations. Appropriate tools are provided by the built-in editor. After that send links to the interested person. It will be clearly and quickly.
How to work with Yandex Disk?
The developers of the service made sure that the free Yandex disk has become a powerful and simple tool for users. Therefore, at your disposal a variety of options for work: through Internet browsers, a special program, from mobile applications on different platforms, etc.
We get access to the disk using an Internet browser
Work through the web-interface - opens the most complete set of opportunities. However, no additional programsbesides the internet browser (GoogleChrome, MozillaFirefox, Opera, etc.) are not needed. Just log in to Yandex and start working.
The advantages of this method are that you do not create copies of files on your PC that take up disk space. This mode of operation allows you to upload photos from social networks and back.
The disadvantage is the availability of mandatory Internet access.
We use the application "Yandex.Disk"
The second method involves working with a disk using a special free program Yandex.Disk (for Windows, Mac OS, Linux). It must be downloaded and installed. In this case, a special folder will be created on your PC. It will completely duplicate the entire folder structure and files of your cloud storage. Any manipulations, such as creating a new folder, renaming, deleting files, etc. in the Yandex folder on your PC will automatically be applied to the same objects in the network storage.
The advantage of this method is that you work with folders and Yandex disk files as with any other folders and files on your computer. Internet access is optional. As soon as it appears, the system itself synchronizes the disk folder on the PC with your Yandex disk to the Internet.
Disadvantages are file duplication and disk usage.
We connect Yandex cloud storage as a network drive
The third way is to connect Yandex disk as a network drive. In this case, if you have an Internet connection, you will be able to work with your Yandex disk, as with a regular disk on a PC. For example, as with the C: or D: drive. It will be visible as another drive when you open My Computer.
The advantages of this way of working are in the simplicity and manipulation of folders and files, as well as saving disk space. Since in this version the files are not duplicated.
Disadvantages - the disc will be available only if you have access to the Internet.
Use of mobile applications
A free Yandex disk will be available to you everywhere if you install a special mobile application on your smartphone or tablet. The following platforms are supported: Android, iOS, Symbian, WindowsPhone, Windows 8.
Benefits. Having access to files anywhere in the world where there is internet. Files are not duplicated on the device. You can set up automatic saving of photos and videos with mobile device on Yandex disk. By setting this function, you can not be afraid of losing your photos if the phone goes down or is lost.
Among the shortcomings can be noted the availability of Internet access.
Yandex Disk Limits
Space limit
After registration to all users immediately available free 10 GB disk space. The total free volume can not exceed 20 GB!
If this is not enough for you, you can increase it in several ways. Additional volume is temporarily allocated. The term is determined by the conditions for the acquisition of additional space. You can increase the space in several ways.
- Invite friends to Yandex disk. In this case, you are assigned 0.5 GB per userwho installed the program "Yandex.Disk" on your PC by invitation. Disk space is added immediately after authorization of a new user.
- Participate in promotions that Yandex organizes independently or jointly with partners. In this case, you can add to your repository from 10 to 50 GB.
- You can buy additional volume. Currently the following rates apply:
10 GB - 300 rubles per year
100 GB - 1500 rubles per month.
1 TB - 9000 rubles per year
Payment is made by Visa and Mastercard or Yandex.Money. In order not to prolong the additional space on the Yandex disk every time manually, you can configure automatic renewal. This option is available only when paying by credit card. You can cancel auto-renewal at any time.
What happens when the extra space expires? Just decrease disk space. Wherein all files remain available. They can be downloaded, deleted, etc.
Restrictions on the size of stored files
Above, we considered the limitation of the total disk space available to the user. But there are restrictions on the size of stored files.
The maximum file size that you can store on a Yandex disk is 10 GB.
Please note that when working through the web interface, i.e. through the browser, the maximum file size for uploading is limited to 2 GB. This is due to the peculiarities of the work of Internet browsers, whether it is Chrome, Mozilla, or Opera. To upload files larger than 2 GB, you must use the Yandex.Disk program.
Security
Since your files on the Yandex disk are stored somewhere on servers on the Internet, many users ask themselves how safe this is. If you have a mailbox on Yandex and strong password, I think, you are not particularly worried that your e-mail will be hacked. Storing files on a Yandex disk is also safe. I would not recommend storing such confidential information here as pin-codes of bank cards, various passwords, etc. Everything else - photos, documents, books, music, etc., you can post without fear.
The probability of damage or deletion of files on Yandex disk storage is very small. The safety of files is provided with the most modern technologies.
Free Yandex disk can not be broken or lost. If a smartphone or laptop fails, your files will remain intact in your cloud storage. If the device is lost, it will be enough to prohibit access from it to the "network" drive in a special section of your device. personal account on Yandex.
You may not be afraid that the data may be intercepted during the download. All applications and the Yandex disk site transmit data only over an encrypted connection.
And in addition to everything, all downloaded files up to 1 GB in size are checked by Dr.Web anti-virus.
As you know, a lot of disk space is never, and even more pleasantly when you can get it for free, “for free” :)
Last time I talked about how to get thanks, and today I’ll tell you how to get an extra 32 gigabytes on Yandex.Disk. How long this auction will be of unheard of generosity on the part of Yandex is unknown, so I strongly recommend doing everything described in the article as soon as possible!
So, by default, after registering a place in the cloud. You can dial a certain number of gigabytes for inviting friends, but in the sum it will still be a very modest figure. And just the other day, Yandex launched a campaign (what it is timed for now is not clear), during which you can get as many as 32 gigabytes of an existing place in the cloud for free.
For this you need to do nothing. On any mobile device, be it a tablet or a smartphone, install the Yandex.Disk mobile application (there are versions for Android and iOS).
Immediately after you activate this option, and the first photo will be uploaded to the cloud storage, this picture will appear:
Congratulations! In just a couple of minutes, you received additional space of 32 gigabytes for free and forever!
Still not believing? If I hadn’t tried it personally, I wouldn’t have believed it either, so I confirm everything with documents. Here are screenshots of the state of my CD BEFORE participation in the promotion (left) and AFTER:
Moreover, Yandex receives an email with the following content:
So there is no deception here. Yandex gives +32 GB of space in the cloud for free and forever! I will say more (by big secret): immediately after receiving the bonus, you can remove the application from your mobile device, and the bonus will remain))
And what about those who used the Yandex.Disk application earlier, long before this promotion? Surely they can not get such a generous bonus? Dont be upset! You just need to update the application to the latest version, and as soon as a fresh portion of the photo goes to the cloud, you will also receive additional space!
Friends, tell your friends about this generous action (buttons of social networks are located under the article) and of course write your comments!
Available in the use of 10 GB of space. This volume will be available on a perpetual basis and will never decrease.
But even the most active user may be faced with the fact that these 10 GB is not enough for his needs. The right decision would be to increase disk space.
Developers have provided such an opportunity, and you can expand the storage volume to the required value. No restrictions are mentioned anywhere.
For these purposes, you have access to various methods, both paid and free. In this case, each time a new volume will be added to the existing one.
Method 1: Buying Disk Space
The best option for all users is to pay additional space on Yandex Disk. True, this volume will be available for a period of 1 month or 1 year, after which the service will have to be extended.
If you tick the box "Repeatable payment”, Then at the end of the period for providing additional space, the agreed amount will be automatically debited from the card. You can disable this feature at any time. When paying with Yandex Wallet repeatable payment is not available.
When you turn off the unpaid amount of your files will still remain on the disk, and they can be used freely, even if free space completely clogged. But, of course, nothing new will not work until you buy a new package or not.
Method 2: Participation in the promotion
Yandex periodically holds promotions, taking part in which, you can pump your "cloud" for several dozen gigabytes.
To check the current offers on the package purchase page, follow the link. "Promotions with partners».
Here you can find out all the details regarding the conditions for receiving the prize in the form of additional disk volume and the validity period of this offer. As a rule, stocks consist in the purchase of some equipment or the installation of programs. For example, for installing the Yandex Disk mobile application before July 3, 2017, you are guaranteed to receive 32 GB for unlimited use in the appendix to the standard 10 GB.
Method 3: Yandex Disk Certificate
Owners of this "miracle" can use it for a one-time increase in the volume of cloud storage. The certificate will indicate the code you want to use before specific date. This code along with your login should be sent to an email address also written in the certificate.
True, it is not known for certain for what merits you can get such a certificate. About him only casually indicated in the manual of Yandex.
Method 4: New Account
Nobody forbids you to create another one or more accounts in Yandex, if the main disk is already full.
Plus the fact that you do not have to pay extra gigabytes, minus - disk space different accounts can not be combined, and you have to constantly jump from one to another.
Method 5: Gifts from Yandex
Developers can encourage you for active and long-term use not only of the Disk, but also other Yandex services.
There are also cases when additional temporary volume was provided as compensation to users who faced problems in the operation of the service. This, for example, can occur when a disruption occurs after an update.
If necessary, the Yandex Disk storage may be several times larger than hard drive computer. The easiest way to get extra gigabytes is to make the purchase of the corresponding package. Of the free options available to participate in promotions, use a certificate or register additional accounts. In some cases, Yandex itself may please you with surprises in the form of expanding disk space.
