    When I upload large files and get the “failed” message, the file still sometimes shows up in the target folder a minute or two later. I’ve tested a couple and they download correctly and do appear to be complete / not corrupted.

      Same here but with smaller (3-64 MB) files. 9 of 81 flagged as failed but later appear in my file folder & seem to download OK and uncorrupted. I haven’t downloaded all 81 to check but I guess I may have to as I don’t have confidence all of them are really there & uncorrupted! I was just putting them there as a 3rd copy (offsite) backup but may have to rethink as I’ve lost confidence with Filefactory what with all the dead servers & no clear answer whether these are going to be retrieved/rebuilt (see “Improve site stability” thread).

    This has not been fixed. Even small uploads fail.

    Great! Now I can log onto Filefactory —BUT—- Every single file I select fails to download. Even files that were uploaded on March 1st fail. A month ago during their “improvement” older files failed; especially certain servers. All these problems began their big new release. Please put things back the way they were. I think people are beginning to look to other sites due to Filefactory’s unreliability.
