With the new year often comes some cleaning up, whether that's in your physical home or your digital accounts. If your goal is to free up storage space, you might not need to get rid of quite as many old pictures, emails or files as you think. Investing in cloud storage is a great way to give yourself peace of mind, knowing your important digital files are backed up. Normally it'll run you about $9 a month for 1TB of cloud storage from FolderFort, but now you can save a bit more. Skip the recurring fees and get lifetime access to 1TB of cloud storage from FolderFort for just $60, the lowest price we've ever seen.
As long as you use the service for at least seven months, you'll save money over the monthly plan since this deal grants you lifetime access. The FolderFort platform allows you to access your files on PC, Mac and mobile through any modern browser, which means you'll have access to your most vital data even when you're on the go. The company touts a 100Mbps average upload/download time, which seemed to be pretty in line with my own hands-on experience with this cloud storage option, but keep in mind that this may vary based on your connection.

FolderFort uses Backblaze for its protective encryption. Plus, FolderFort allows unlimited users and workspaces, making file sharing easy when the need arises. There's a free trial on FolderFort's website if you want to try it out first. If you like it, you can come back here to take advantage of this deal. Keep in mind that while this deal is for life, it comes with the caveat that if the company ever goes out of business, you'll lose your storage.Â
Why this deal matters
We'd be shocked to see this service go for any cheaper any time soon. At $60 for 1TB of lifetime storage, it's the lowest price we've seen. While it's possible the price will go lower at some point, we're not expecting it in the near future.
