WebDav sync, lots of storage, free, 4shared.com
4shared.com offers 15GB of storage with no traffic limits FREE. It is WebDav enabled, so you can set Zotero to sync its attachments to it.
Like all WebDav servers working with Zotero (apparently) this was touchy, and it took some tinkering to make it work. But here are very clear and simple instructions (for Mac OSX Lion) to set it up:
Instructions:
0. Sign up for 4shared.com (15GB free, no monthly traffic limits!!) and install 4sync desktop client.
1. Go to Zotero preferences, Advanced tab.
2. Under Data Directory Login, click "Show Data Directory." This will reveal the /zotero directory in your Applications folder.
3. Control-click on the "zotero" folder.
4. This should bring up a menu of options, one of which is "Get 4shared link for this file". Select it.
5. Now a "link" appearing as a folder icon named "zotero" should appear in your main 4shared.com area.
6. Go back to Zotero preferences, Sync tab.
7. Select "Sync attachments in My Library using" _WebDav_
8. For the URL, make sure it is set on "https" (not http)
9. Enter "webdav.4shared.com" in the URL box (w/o quotation marks)
10. Enter username and password as you set them when you signed up for 4shared.com.
11. Click Verify Server
Hopefully you're good to go!
