GMX freemail users can use https://mediacenter.gmx.net
for WebDAV file storage. I tested the server, it works without a hitch.
I mention this because this provider is popular in german-speaking countries, and for GMX users no extra sign-up with a separate provider is necessary.

I'd never come across them before either. I'm trying to sync my data as I type (not from Firefox ...) - it was very easy to set up.
Its definitely moving files around, absolutely killing my internet connection.
Forgot to add: this is very exciting! I thought I was going to be stuck either a) not being able to sync my attachments or b) having to pay for storage / file transfer c) wait for google to sort themselves out and offer webdav :) nice to see somebody else ahead of the curve here.
Well, it took a couple of hours to sync (no surprise, given the several hundred meg of attachments) but sync it did, up and down. I'm very impressed. Congrats to the developers.

What are the correct values for the form at
Zotero Preferences -> Sync -> Storage Server

GMX has a 1,000 file per folder limit which with large collections means you hit the buffers pretty quickly, I've just discovered :(
Anybody else got any suggestions for free storage that doesn't have this particular limitation?
thanks, Jon.
MyDrive.ch is excellent. has 2 GB free, no file per folder limit, max file size 2GB and you can attach guest users to a particular account. It's working very well with zotero. you can also get additional storage space for which there is a charge of around €0.30 per month per GB

Good luck and thanks to GMX -
works fine.
Thank You

It will prompt you to create the folder /zotero if it doesnt exist.
Kind regards, Klaus
Besides that, mydrive.ch works great.
