Scramble Cloud Storage is offering a lifetime subscription for 20 terabytes of storage for a one-time fee of $349.95. This deal aims to provide a permanent solution for users facing ever-increasing storage needs for photos, videos, backups, and work files, eliminating the recurring cost of monthly subscription services.
The service emphasizes security and privacy, with files undergoing end-to-end encryption using AES and a zero-knowledge architecture before leaving the user's device. Users maintain control over who can access their data. Access to stored files is facilitated through multiple platforms, including a web app, a desktop client, WebDAV, and a Command Line Tool. WebDAV integration allows Scramble Drive to be mounted within an operating system's native file explorer, while the browser access ensures compatibility across various devices and operating systems without additional software.
File sharing capabilities include the creation of encrypted groups, setting file permissions, sending private links, and collaboration features through Team Link. Users can also stream encrypted video and view Word and Excel files directly within the browser.
There are certain limitations to the service: individual files cannot exceed 5GB, and daily uploads are capped at 70GB. However, the plan includes unlimited file sharing and unlimited bandwidth alongside the 20TB storage capacity. This offering is positioned as a compelling alternative for individuals who accumulate large amounts of data and prefer a one-time purchase for extensive cloud storage over ongoing subscription fees.
