Microsoft announced that anyone who buys a Surface 2 or Surface Pro 2 will get 200GB of SkyDrive storage for two years. That 200GB option has been extended to everyone with a new pricing tier on SkyDrive.
SkyDrive comes with 7GB of free storage, but you can pay a year fee to add more storage to yours. It’s connected to your Microsoft accounts and comes in various increments. There’s a new option of an extra 200GB for $100 per year. According to Microsoft, that’s enough storage to take a photo, every hour, from the moment someone is born to the day they graduate.
Here’s the new breakdown.
20GB - $10 / year
50GB - $25 / year
100GB - $50 / year
200GB - $100 / year
"With SkyDrive built right in to Windows 8.1, we’ve made it really easy to always have your files with you; and for many file types, SkyDrive is the default location for saving your files. We didn’t want you to worry about filling up your hard drive, so we invented smart files to allow you to access your entire SkyDrive from your device, without actually having to store everything locally," Microsoft stated in an official blog post.
