MyDrive.ch offers 2 GB of data storage free, and are the property of <a href="http://www.softronics.ch/en/about-us/about-us.php">this company</a>.</p> <p>Since MyDrive.ch provides WebDAV support, you can use SecretSync with it. It's pretty easy to setup. First, you'll need to sign-up for an account with MyDrive.ch.</p> <p>Then, you'll need to follow their instructions to map a local drive to your MyDrive.ch account. The instructions can be found <a href="http://www.mydrive.ch/help#webdav"><strong>here</strong></a>. </p> <p>The following demonstrates setting up on the Windows System, using NetDrive, per the recommendation of MyDrive.ch.</p> <p>After installing NetDrive, you can map a drive letter on Windows to your MyDrive.ch account. Here's a screenshot.</p> <p><img src="http://getsecretsync.com/ss/images/forum-mydrive-netdrive.png" alt="NetDrive map to MyDrive.ch WebDAV" /></p> <p>Next, you need to download and install SecretSync. When it asks for the Dropbox, etc, folder, give it the drive letter you mapped using NetDrive. In our case, this was <code>Z:\</code></p> <p><img src="http://getsecretsync.com/ss/images/forum-mydrive-secretsync-install.png" alt="SecretSync tunnel folder MyDrive.ch" /></p> <p>Finish the install, and then you can use SecretSync as you normally would. Put a file in, it encrypts it and uploads it to the <code>Z:\</code> drive, which goes to your MyDrive.ch account.</p> <p>E.g. here's the contents of the SecretSync folder:</p> <p><img src="http://getsecretsync.com/ss/images/forum-mydrive-secretsync.png" alt="SecretSync with MyDrive.ch" /></p> <p>And here's the corresponding data in our MyDrive.ch account.</p> <p><img src="http://getsecretsync.com/ss/images/forum-mydrive-mydrive.png" alt="SecretSync with MyDrive.ch" /></p> <p>Since WebDAV works in a cross-platform way, you should be able to setup this configuration on multiple platforms and synchronize your files in total privacy and security. </p>
