- mikeash 12y agoIt is possible to retrieve individual files or small collections of files, so you can use it as a "I forgot to upload my presentation" solution in addition to just plain disaster recovery. However, it's somewhat cumbersome and pretty slow (restoring a single file still takes on the order of minutes) so not a practical solution for general-purpose data storage and retrieval.
