Quark Netdisk vs Baidu Netdisk · Alibaba Cloud Disk · Thunder In-depth Hengping Review

The material does not provide a comparison of the laxity of the two inspections (which needs to be confirmed by actual measurement), but it is clear: this round of inspections is industry-wide and policy-driven. The copyright crackdown starting in 2025 (Jianwang 2025) will require the network disk industry to carry out strict inspections of overseas films and television, and Quark will be the first to bear the brunt. Violators will be deleted and their names will be changed and identified. Both companies belong to the Alibaba family and must abide by the same regulatory requirements. It is unrealistic to expect one company to be significantly more lenient. Conclusion: Don’t store scarce/sensitive/copyrighted content on any single network disk. Be sure to back it up locally and across multiple platforms. This is easier and more practical than worrying about which one to use.

The material does not cover Quark or Thunder Netdisk’s support for BT magnet links (requires actual testing to confirm). The fact that Quark can provide is that Quark SVIP provides offline download functions (about 100 times per month). Offline downloads are usually used to pull network resources to network disks. As for whether it supports magnet/BT links and the degree of support of Thunder Cloud Disk, the material does not explain. Xunlei started as a download tool, and is traditionally strong in magnetism/BT. However, whether it is possible to directly download magnet links in the network disk, it is recommended to test and confirm based on the actual functions of the two Apps.

The material does not involve Google Photos and cannot be compared head-on (requires actual measurement for confirmation). As far as Quark is concerned: it supports photo/video upload, backup (WeChat/QQ/desktop automatic backup) and 4K playback, free 10GB, SVIP can be up to 6TB. However, there are two points to weigh when using Quark overseas: First, the server is in China, and the direct connection may be slow, and accelerators often need to be returned to the country; second, the platform will review the content, and violations will be deleted. For purely private photo backup, overseas services such as Google Photos are usually more accessible in overseas network environments. No matter which one you choose, it is recommended to back up important photos locally and on multiple platforms.

The material does not provide comparison details of Alibaba Cloud disk automatic backup (requires actual measurement for confirmation). It can be confirmed that Quark supports automatic backup of mobile phone photos/videos (WeChat/QQ/desktop), free 10GB, SVIP maximum 6TB, the larger the capacity, the better it can hold long-term photos. Both companies belong to the Alibaba family, and automatic backup is a standard feature. Whether you want to worry or not depends mainly on your capacity requirements and network: using Quark for automatic backup overseas will be affected by cross-border network speeds, and uploads may be slow. It is recommended to enable automatic backup of both for a period of time and see which one is more convenient for uploading and album organization before using it in the long term.

The material does not provide comparative information on Alibaba Cloud Disk (which needs to be confirmed by actual measurement) and can only be used as a reference for Quark's judgment. If you often exchange data with relatives and friends in mainland China and need large capacity, Quark offers 10GB for free, SVIP is as low as about 88-110 yuan/year, and has 6TB of space during major promotions. The price/performance ratio is good; however, direct connection to Quark in Singapore (the server is in China) may be slow, often requiring an accelerator back home, and the content is subject to censorship. If you mainly store private photo files and value smooth overseas access, you can also consider overseas network storage. It is recommended to install Quark first (use WeChat to scan the QR code to log in without a mainland mobile phone number) for a trial, and then decide whether to use an overseas network disk for backup.

The material does not provide direct comparison data of Baidu Netdisk (which needs to be confirmed by actual measurement), but there are several points that can confirm the source of Quark’s reputation: first, the price is close to the people, SVIP promotion can be as low as about 7-9 yuan/month, 6TB large space; second, after SVIP is turned on, the actual measurement is about 11MB/s, and the speed increase is obvious. However, we must also look at both sides: Quark’s free download is also very slow (hundreds of KB/s). Although the official claim is that it is not a speed limit but a peak congestion, the measured difference is obvious; and it is also affected by content censorship and inventory. So a more accurate statement is: Quark membership is cost-effective, but the free experience and content stability are not without shortcomings.

The material does not provide a comparison of overseas payments from other network disks (which needs to be confirmed by actual measurement). First, let’s talk about the common reasons for Quark payment failure: upgrading members usually requires Alipay/WeChat payment, and generally requires binding a Chinese bank card and real name. Pure overseas cards are easy to get stuck in this step. What you can try is: use supported Alipay/WeChat channels, ask domestic relatives and friends to recharge on your behalf, or purchase membership on Taobao (pay attention to account security). The material does not indicate which network disk is more friendly to overseas payments. If you just want to avoid complicated payments, you may consider using an overseas network disk with direct payment from an overseas credit card. The specifics are subject to actual measurements on each payment page.

Not necessarily, changing platforms may not solve the problem. The root cause of slow loading errors overseas is often cross-border links: Quark servers are in China, and direct connections overseas (including Southeast Asia) suffer from high latency, packet loss, and international bandwidth congestion. Alibaba cloud disk servers are also in China (both are Alibaba-based), and there is a high probability that they will still be affected by the cross-border network (actual measurement is required to confirm the difference). A more effective way is usually to improve the access link: use a return accelerator/VPN to access the nearest mainland node, and give priority to using 5GHz Wi-Fi or wired, restart the router optical modem, rather than simply changing the network disk.

The material does not provide a comparison of the actual measured delays of the two in Hong Kong (actual measurement is required to confirm). However, it can be inferred: Quark servers are mainly located in China, and Hong Kong's direct connection has cross-border delays and international bandwidth fluctuations; Alibaba Cloud Disk is both Alibaba-series, and the servers are also in China. Both of them face similar cross-border link problems, and the delays will not be very low. What can really improve connection stability is to use a return accelerator/VPN to access nearby, and give priority to stable wired or 5GHz networks. To determine which one is more stable, it is best to test both during your usual time periods, and the actual performance shall prevail.

The material does not provide the price of other network disks for horizontal price-performance comparison (actual measurement is required to confirm). First, let me give you a reference price: SVIP 6TB can be as low as about 88-110 yuan/year (about 7-9 yuan/month) during major promotions. The price fluctuates greatly with activities. You may wish to wait for the big promotions (such as Double 11/Double 12) to get the lowest price before renewing. It is often more economical than changing platforms immediately. If you really want to switch, it is recommended to compare the actual prices of each company one by one according to the dimensions that you value most (space, download speed, overseas access, payment method) before making a decision. Regardless of replacement or not, important files must be backed up locally first to avoid data loss due to expired capacity recycling.

The material does not provide overseas registration comparison of Baidu Netdisk (requires actual measurement for confirmation). As far as Quark is concerned: native registration requires a mainland Chinese mobile phone number to receive a verification code, and overseas accounts usually cannot receive it. The more convenient way for overseas users is not to use a mobile phone number, but to use a WeChat scan code to log in to bypass the mobile phone number - first use a Taiwanese/overseas mobile phone number to register WeChat, then select WeChat to log in and scan the code to authorize. After logging in, if a popup pops up to bind the mobile phone number, you can directly ignore it. Android can also use third-party markets such as APKPure to download apps to avoid app store regional restrictions. Therefore, the key to overseas registration of Quark is to log in via WeChat.

The material does not provide the actual measured speed comparison of Alibaba Cloud disk (actual measurement is required to confirm). As far as Quark is concerned, the free download is only a few hundred KB/s (about 260-700KB/s), and SVIP uses a dedicated channel to measure about 11MB/s. But in Malaysia, stability mainly depends on the cross-border network: Quark servers are domestic, and international export congestion will slow down or even time out; Alibaba Cloud Disk, which is also owned by Alibaba and has servers in China, faces similar problems. The key to improving stability is to use a return accelerator to access nearby, and give priority to 5GHz Wi-Fi or wired. To compare which one is more stable, it is recommended that both sides download a large file for actual measurement and comparison.

The material does not cover the differences in risk control between the two for overseas IP (requires actual measurement for confirmation). The confirmable background is: Quark servers are in China, and overseas IP direct connections often time out and load slowly, so many users use return accelerators to connect to mainland nodes to improve access; both companies belong to the Alibaba family and have the same supervision and review requirements. There is no evidence in the material to show which company is significantly more lenient towards overseas IP. Practical suggestions: For overseas visits, give priority to using stable return lines to improve connectivity, while avoiding storing illegal/sensitive content that triggers audits, and backing up important data locally on multiple platforms, rather than hoping that a certain platform will be more friendly to overseas IPs.

The material does not provide the speed limit comparison of Baidu Netdisk (requires actual measurement for confirmation). As far as Quark is concerned: the actual measurement for free users is indeed slow (about 260-700KB/s). Officially, it is said that it is not speed limit but peak congestion, but the actual measurement gap is obvious; when SVIP is used and the exclusive channel is used, it can reach about 11MB/s. Even if you use a VPN, the VPN mainly improves cross-border connectivity (Quark servers are in China) and cannot break through the low speed of the free account itself. What really determines the speed is whether to sign up for a membership. Therefore, you can usually get better speeds by using VPN + Quark SVIP; the impact on Baidu depends on your actual measurement and comparison.

Both are products of Alibaba, but we need to clarify the reality first: starting from April 2026, the network disk industry has carried out a very strict inventory of overseas film and television resources (American dramas, Korean dramas, Thai dramas, etc.). Quark has been the first to bear the brunt. A large number of drama resources have been removed from the shelves and deleted. Even just changing the file name may be recognized and cleaned by the system. So no matter which one you choose, it is no longer safe to store overseas movies and TV shows in the network disk for a long time. If you are looking for resources temporarily, you can register for two accounts (use WeChat to log in overseas, free mainland mobile phone number, free 10GB each) and compare the sharing links on hand; however, important content or content that you want to keep for a long time must be saved locally and distributed across multiple platforms. Don’t just put it in one place.

There is no direct comparison of the transfer experience between the two disks in the material, which needs to be explained first. What can be confirmed is that Quark supports "dumping" resources after opening a link shared by others. A new user's first transfer can also trigger additional temporary space rewards (most say it is valid for about 30-90 days, not permanent). The transfer process itself is a common function of Quark. Overseas Chinese can use WeChat to log in to Quark without a mainland mobile phone number, and get 10GB for free when registering. As for who is more comfortable with Baidu Netdisk, it is recommended to register both and transfer them once to compare by yourself, because the experience is related to speed limit and network environment. (Which one is more convenient needs to be confirmed by actual testing)

The material does not have direct comparison data of iCloud, so let’s make it clear first. As for Quark itself: 10GB is free, SVIP is about 6TB, regular promotions are about 158 ​​yuan/year, big promotions can be as low as about 88-110 yuan/year (equivalent to 7-9 yuan/month), and the price fluctuates dramatically with activities. However, please be reminded that Quark servers are mainly located in China. Overseas direct connections may be unstable and require an accelerator back to China. The platform will automatically review and inspect the content. The community generally recommends that important documents should not be placed in just one place. For non-renewable data such as family photos, the most stable method is to back up the data locally and distribute it across multiple platforms. No matter which company you use, don’t just keep a single copy. (The comparison of stability/cost-effectiveness between the two requires actual measurement and confirmation)

There is no comparative data on the office collaboration functions of the two in the material, so let’s make this clear first. From the perspective of overseas availability: Quark servers are mainly located in China. Direct connections overseas (including Southeast Asia) may time out and load slowly, and it is often necessary to return to the country for accelerator to be stable; and downloading Quark App on iOS usually requires a Chinese Apple ID. For scenarios where you are overseas and require teams to collaborate online at any time, the uncertainty of this cross-border network is a key factor to consider. Which one is more convenient? It is recommended to decide based on actual network testing in the area where your team is located. (Comparison of collaboration functions requires actual measurement and confirmation)

The material only covers the price of Quark, and there is no corresponding data on the membership price of Alibaba Cloud Disk. Let me explain this first. The official original price of Quark SVIP is about 300 yuan/year, and the daily regular promotion is about 158 ​​yuan/year. The deep promotion subsidy can be as low as about 88-110 yuan/year (equivalent to about 7-9 yuan/month, such as Double 11, it is as low as 95.8 yuan/year, Double 12 is about 110 yuan/year), and the continuous annual subscription is about 138 yuan/year. The main point is that the price of Quark fluctuates violently with activities. It is recommended to go to the actual payment page to see the actual price paid before making a decision. Who saves more on Alibaba Cloud Disk? Please compare the current prices of both parties. (Alibaba cloud disk price needs to be confirmed by actual measurement)

First, let’s correct a common misunderstanding: the literal promise of Quark’s official privacy policy is only that “file contents are encrypted for transmission and will not be used for identification or other unauthorized purposes.” It does not promise “never view or scan.” In fact, the platform does automatically review uploaded content, and violations will be blocked and deleted--the overseas film and television inspection starting in April 2026 is an example, even changing the file name may be identified. Alibaba Cloud Disk and Quark belong to Alibaba and are subject to the same content review environment. So don’t think of any company as “never touching your files.” Sensitive or important content should be encrypted and backed up locally, not just on a network disk. (There is no direct material for privacy comparison between the two disks, and actual measurement is required to confirm)
