Yes hosting spare hard drive space is one way you could help Sia grow. Just be aware that you will want to keep a 95% uptime and the SiaUI can cut in to your resources a bit. So depending on what kind of computer hardware you have it might be a hassle for you. But it is definitely something I encourage you to look in to. You could optionally get yourself a Raspberry PI with an external hard drive and set it up to be a host by following my guide at http://sia-setup.skunkink.hns.to. But there are also plenty of other ways to help the network grow like joining the Built to Explore hackathon which is open to developers and non-developers. The second phase is open to the general public and even gives you the chance to win up to $3000 in prizes just by using the new applications developed during the hackathon. However the easiest way to support the network is simply by using it. Grab yourself an account at Skyspace, Skyfeed, MARStorage, Filebase (make sure to select Skynet as your hosting service), etc and start uploading data! Everytime you use Skynet to send/receive data, talk to friends, build a website, you are helping the network grow. So get out there and find new ways in which you can use it an encourage all of your friends to do the same! The future is here, welcome to Skynet.
I'm making this a separate reply so you are sure to get it. But make sure you also go sign up an account at https://siasky.net as well. It keeps track of ALL your data that you upload and download to and from Skynet through the Siasky portal.
