AOL'S NEW XDRIVE Desktop Lite application makes accessing your Xdrive online data-storage account even easier. The app, still in beta, has some useful features¬such as the ability to pre¬view media files-but it can be confusing to use.
An Xdrive account with 5GB of storage is free (a 500GB account costs $10 -(approx Rs. 400 a month). Previously, you could access your storage space via a browser or through the Xdrive Desktop utility, which assigns a drive letter to your virtual Xdrive in Win¬dows Explorer. Lite uses the Adobe AIR platform, which allows Web-based apps to run outside a browser.

The Lite interface looks similar to that of Windows Explorer. To move files to your Xdrive, you can drag and drop from Windows Explorer or your desktop into the Xdrive folder in the Lite program window, or from the hard-drive section in Lite to the Xdrive section.
