can anyone recomend where i might be able to host data files for free?
THey need to be accessable and downloadable by anyone.
I could ideally do with 500mb.. and for free  i just need to link my webpage to that file for downloading.

That's £150 a month for 30GB, £1800 a year for 30GB... why not just pay £39.50 a year and get 30GB plus other tools and services and stuff from Heart or other people.

Who uses 30Gb of webspace? CorsaSport is only pushing 6Gb...
It's the bandwidth you have to be careful of. Our traffic is approx 110Gb a month at the mo

why not sign up for dymanic DNS (if u have a fat connection this is) thus turning ur computer into a web server. U then have as much web space as u need.
obviously ur machine will have to be connected to the net 24/7 to access ur site
just have to install apache web server for example.

Do you have to pay for this?
Its purely for files, not a web site. Leaving a pc on 24/7 is not a prob.
Oh, and i take it theres no free ones?
