Motorola 即将关闭云端储存服务

　　今天一大早 Mowd 收到了由 ZumoDrive 寄来的一封信，内容提到 ZumoDrive 的开发团队将会并入到 Motorola 的 MotoCast 服务下继续进行开发，并且将于今年的六月一日正式关闭所有服务，届时所有用户的数据也将会被删除。

　　ZumoDrive 是一间云端储存服务提供商，母公司 Zecter 在 2010 年底被 Motorola 收购。

　　ZUmoDrive 跟 Dropbox 一样为注册使用者免费提供 2GB 的使用空间，差别在于 ZumoDrive 仅提供储存服务，不提供文件同步功能。

　　在现今这个云端储存百家争鸣的时代，仅提供 2GB 的空间就让 ZumoDrive 失去了竞争力。空间上无法跟 Box 的 50GB、SkyDrive 的 25GB、Sugarsync 的 5GB 甚至是未来 Google Drive 的 5GB 相比。

　　仅提供云端储存而没有任何特色的服务也让 ZumoDrive 埋下了关闭的种子。

　　下面是信件全文：
