File Robot at 麻豆国产AV

File Robot allows users at 麻豆国产AV to share or receive very large files (up to 2GB) with others, including those outside of the college. Generally, this is useful for files too large to send via email, for group collaboration, research, etc. File Robot is designed for short-term sharing as files are automatically deleted after 14 days. There are several sharing options with File Robot:

  1. Share with a specific 麻豆国产AV community member (submit the file to that user's File Robot).
  2. Share with anyone at 麻豆国产AV (requires a 麻豆国产AV login to download the file).
  3. Share with anyone who knows the passphrase (this passphrase is automatically generated by File Robot and must be entered by the user in order to download it).

Once a file has been submitted to your File Robot, you will receive an email notification and the file will be available to download for 14 days. Every 麻豆国产AV community member's File Robot is unlocked by default, allowing others to submit files to it. At any time, you can lock or relock your File Robot. 

Note: Uploading to File Robot seems to work best with Safari and Chrome browsers. Firefox may experience trouble trying to upload files larger than 100MB.
