At the beginning of last month, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) released the first batch of 8 online disk enterprises, including Baidu Net Disk, Tencent Micro Cloud, Tianyi Cloud Disk, Hecai Cloud, Alibaba Cloud Disk, Xunlei Cloud Disk, 360 Secure Cloud Disk and NetEase Network Disk, to jointly sign the "Self-Discipline Convention on User Experience Protection of Personal Network Disk Service Business" in Beijing, requiring them to launch "undifferentiated rate" products by the end of 2021 to ensure the download experience of netizens.
On the evening of December 20, Baidu's earlier promised "undifferentiated rate" service product Baidu Network Disk Unlimited Speed Unlimited Youth Edition finally came. The promise given by Baidu before is that it will no longer limit the download speed, the network disk storage space is only 10GB, and the download speed of the Baidu network disk youth version on the poster has reached 52MB/s, so what is the real situation? Xiao Lei hurried to test it.
Judging from the test results, Baidu does not have any more speed limits, with Xiaolei's broadband, the download speed can exceed 70MB/s. In fact, this point Xiao Lei is not worried, after all, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has opened its mouth, Baidu is bold, and does not dare to engage in small actions here, Xiao Lei is really worried about whether Baidu network disk and youth version of the resources can be interconnected. If the two resources cannot be interconnected, then the unlimited speed of the Baidu network disk youth version is meaningless, after all, most of the resources use Baidu network disk.
After Xiaolei test, Baidu network disk and youth version of the file can communicate with each other, but Baidu has made a small action, that is, the network disk transfer storage. We need to transfer the content in the Baidu network disk to the Youth Edition to download, the number of times transferred is limited to three times, and the number of files transferred each time is unlimited, but it cannot exceed 10GB. That is to say, the functions of scanning code download and link download, Baidu network disk youth version does not have one.
For this transfer time limit of three times, Xiao Lei still has a question, is it three times a day, three times a week, or only three times in total? If there are only three times in total, then what is the meaning of this unlimited speed, you can only download the files you uploaded, and the size of the network disk is only 10GB, I might as well use the Alibaba Cloud disk.
To summarize, Baidu network disk youth version has achieved no speed limit, but there is an essential difference with Baidu network disk, it can not be directly connected with resources, it must be transferred, dumped and limited the number of times, the operation is very complicated.
The reason why the major network disks are expensive is to not lose money, which is understandable. The problem is that many people do not often use the network disk, take Xiao Lei, it is estimated that two or three times a year will use the network disk, in order to open a membership for these two or three times, Xiao Lei is definitely not very willing.
Network disk enterprises need to take into account this part of the netizens, our use of network disk brand rate is too low, open membership is not cost-effective, the pressure on the enterprise server is not large. Companies can fully develop products suitable for these users, about 100GB of space is enough, and even the number of times is no problem, as long as we use one or two times without speed limits. This time Baidu's performance, Xiao Lei is really disappointed, looking forward to the official version can be changed.
