There are a few different applications that can turn an Internet file service into a mounted disk. While there are ways to use these services for off-line storage, through selective sync and web browser access, it can be a pain to actually use the files. The disconnect between SSD pricing and storage service pricing can be a deterrent to taking full advantage of both.

Dropbox, Microsoft and Google are all competing for customers and driving down the price of syncing files to the Internet.

Right now all of the major on-line syncing services charge $10 per month or under for 1TB of storage. While the SSD in my laptop is still moderately priced, the cost of spinning disks and Internet-based storage seems to be dropping like a stone.
