A month ago I bought Office 365 for students today, I logged on my onedrive by the website and saw that I got a 1 TB, initially thought that someone hacked my, microsoft account then found out that I got this 1 tb with a subscription to Office 365, the coolest is that the subscription office 365 for students is four years, instead of the usual one year, and everything cost me 299 zł.

Have you got unlimited free bandwidth to upload/download document to/from it?

That is a great deal!

Of course, if it were me, I would wonder why I would want to store any of my data with the same business with whom I had shared my passcode to access that same data. I would remind myself that nothing in this life comes free, and that Edward Snowden warned us of corporations doing the bidding of governments around the world (and the other way around) who want to datamine me, my data and my communications.

I don't even store my passcodes online, let alone any data except the minimum necessary to operate freely.

Congratulations and good luck.

^ Ditto that. I bought a 1Tb external USB drive the other day for around ?60. No bandwidth issues, very fast and because it is an encrypted TrueCrypt drive nobody else but me can access the data on it. Sometimes "free" doesn't mean worth having or using.

My mom says the same thing, my mom had a tough childhood, she says that nothing in life is "for free" for everything you have to pay sooner or later,

Or maybe like something placed in the cloud services as OneDrive, GoogleDrive, it might be better to encrypt some files such strong encrypting poorly boys from the American NSA, former colleagues of Mr Snowden had more fun: D
