Corrections to this record
Changes we made to our own record of IDrive, newest first: a figure read again on the vendor's page, a plan it no longer lists, a note. None of them is a price change by IDrive. Every correction on the site is in the corrections log.
-
Personal 10 TB. Correction 2026-09-11: The annual discount of 30% was removed from "Personal 10 TB". The recorded $14.99/mo is this plan's own note's $179.88 yearly total over 12 months, so the saving is already inside the figure, while the page prints the percentage as a further discount off the same row — offering a reader $10.49/mo. Removed rather than moved: no rate above it is named anywhere in the note. The note still describes the term in full. No price changed.

Personal 20 TB. Correction 2026-09-11: The annual discount of 30% was removed from "Personal 20 TB". The recorded $24.99/mo is this plan's own note's $299.88 yearly total over 12 months, so the saving is already inside the figure, while the page prints the percentage as a further discount off the same row — offering a reader $17.49/mo. Removed rather than moved: no rate above it is named anywhere in the note. The note still describes the term in full. No price changed.
-
Personal 100 TB. Correction 2026-09-11: The annual discount of 30% was removed from "Personal 100 TB". The recorded $99.99/mo is this plan's own note's $1199.88 yearly total over 12 months, so the saving is already inside the figure, while the page prints the percentage as a further discount off the same row — offering a reader $69.99/mo. Removed rather than moved: no rate above it is named anywhere in the note. The note still describes the term in full. No price changed.
-
Personal 5 TB. Correction 2026-09-11: The annual discount of 30% was removed from "Personal 5 TB". The note names $119.88 a year, exactly twelve months at the recorded $9.99, so a year of the recorded price IS the annual price and the saving off it is nothing — yet the row claimed 30% and the page printed it as a discount off $9.99, offering a reader $6.99/mo. The recorded figure is the annual-billing rate. No month-to-month rate is written down anywhere in the record for the percentage to be true of, and deriving one we were never shown is not something this corpus does, so the claim is removed rather than moved. The note still describes the arrangement in full. No price changed.

This standing as a plaque
IDrive currently holds a silver deskmark here — Rank 2 of 5 · Cloud Storage. Anyone may show it. There is nothing to apply for, nothing to pay, and displaying it changes no score: the standing comes from the published algorithm, which never reads commission data. We never ask anyone to show it, and its link carries rel="nofollow".
The image is drawn from our live data, so it follows the standing rather than freezing it: if IDrive moves up or down a tier, the plaque on your own site says so at our next publish. Nothing is tracked beyond the ordinary web-server log that records any image request.
