How Does IDrive Support Linux?

IDrive Supports Linux "Data"

IDrive is one of our most highly recommended online backup services for most types of users and they are constantly improving their service.

IDrive Now Supports Linux Data

Just a few months ago IDrive upgraded their data infrastructure which now allows them to store Linux data.

Does that mean they have a Linux application?

Sadly, no, but they do offer an open set of API’s (application programming interface) that enable anyone to write their own custom application for the IDrive cloud storage back-end.

Hopefully, each Linux distro will begin to have someone write an app using these API’s and release them to the users.

While this may not be the answer you were hoping for, it is an upgrade from what the answer was 6 months ago, which was a “not at all”.

Many other improvements have come about at IDrive in the last few months that we will share in other posts on the site.

In the meantime, for all Windows, Mac and mobile devices, why not:
