I'd like to experiment with Sky Drive, but keep using my Dropbox account unless I decide to switch.
This answer gives instructions for how to set up both at the same time, but I'm a little worried about data integrity. Is there any danger involved here? Will Sky Drive and Dropbox fight each other? Note that I am using Sky Drive/Dropbox on multiple computers, so they will be writing data as well as reading it.
Is this safe?
Edit: I can use them with different folders if necessary, but I'm particularly curious what would happen if they sync from the same folder.
