Unclear if scam or just incompetent
A few months ago I found a deal for 2TB of storage on ThunderDrive.io for $60. I didn't do as much research as I should have, thinking "how bad could it get?" Well as it turns out, it could get pretty bad. The entirety of the service is a bare-bones website, which is much slower than it has any right to be given the limited interface and feature list. There is no mobile or desktop application. This wouldn't necessarily be a deal-breaker, but the fact that it's essentially impossible to upload more than five files at a time certainly is. When you have 2TB of storage, the expectation is that you could select the contents of an entire hard drive, and walk away while the upload commences. This is not the case. At best, the website does nothing. At worst, it freezes or returns an error, without uploading more than a couple of the files from that selection. There is no option to do a "batch upload" as a workaround, so literally it is impossible to use the space I have paid for. This is a waste of money, and I'm honestly unsure if it is an intentional scam, or if the developers are just wildly incompetent. Save yourself some money and stay away from this service, no matter what kind of deal you're offered.
