Temp Drive: Super Fast Temporary Cloud Storage with 10 Gbps Edge Downloads & Auto-Expiry

Not every file needs to be kept forever. Many times, you just want to share a big video, design package, game build, or project archive with friends or clients at blazing fast download speeds—and have it automatically delete itself after a few days so it never clutters your drive. This is exactly why we built Temp Drive in RapidxCloud Ultra.

1. Multi-Cloud Bucket Storage (AWS S3 + Cloudflare R2)

When you drop a file into Temp Drive, it is encrypted on your device and saved directly to multi-cloud storage buckets powered by AWS S3 and Cloudflare R2. Because Cloudflare R2 has zero egress download fees and connects to a worldwide network of data centers, your recipients download directly from the nearest edge server with speeds up to 10 Gbps (or whatever their internet connection can handle).

2. Auto-Deletes After 5 to 7 Days (Zero Clutter)

Standard cloud drives fill up with old download links and forgotten files that you only needed once. Temp Drive is built for temporary sharing: any file uploaded here stays live for 5 to 7 days, giving your recipients plenty of time to download it at maximum speed. After 7 days, the file is automatically and permanently erased from the storage buckets.

3. 5 GB Single File Limit with End-to-End Encryption

Temp Drive supports single files up to 5 GB. Just like your main RapidxCloud vault, every file uploaded to Temp Drive is encrypted on your own device before it touches the cloud. That means neither AWS, Cloudflare, nor anyone else in between can see your file contents. You get maximum 10 Gbps download speeds with 100% private security.

Core Takeaway

Temp Drive gives you the fastest way to share big files up to 5 GB: 10 Gbps CDN download speeds, zero storage bloat, complete end-to-end encryption, and automatic cleanup after 5 to 7 days.
