nope, accessing gdrive by other means just works without any problems - i.e. I am currently trying to implement sort of a shadow drive for mkv metadata which sits between the clouddrive volumes and plex - using the gdrive api (of course with my own developer keys) there is no heavy throttling noticeable: uploading and downloading at around 750 mbit/sec using a few threaded connections is no problem at all whereas clouddrive maxxes out at around 80-100 mbit/sec for a few seconds, then slowly drops to around 0, then going back up to around 100 and so forth. (average speed per 5 minute is well below 40 mbit). today, and as long as I leave uploading disabled, the clouddrive connection seems to be working okay (for downloads) - I am pretty sure you will get it sorted sometime in the future

its weekend again - the throttling kicks in almost instantly. upload speed was down from a stable 600 mbit/sec I had in the "golden days" to a mere 20-80mbit/sec since I have upgraded from .725 - hopefully one day it gets fixed somehow, but the damn throttling is the suck. if it werent about 20 tbyte of data that I already have sent to the drives, I would have abandoned the testing by this time. the throttling issue really kills the brand of quality you already built up.

One time I found the cloud drive disk marked "offline" in windows disk management (which, by the way, you can access by hitting windows+r and entering diskmgmt.msc) - i.e. the disk itself was there, but no partitions/volumes visible - right clicking and selecting "activate" onto the empty disk solved the problem.

first of all, thanks for this great piece of software you made! i would like to request one slight and one maybe more harder to accomplish change to the clouddrive UI: 1.) I would like to have the 'upload enabled' button which is currently hidden in "Drive Options -> Performance -> I/O performance..." right on the main display. reason: currently I am copying media files to the clouddrive volumes having the uploading completely disabled, then I am letting mediaelch and plex index the files - and when thats done, the uploading gets enabled. this way, the otherwise pretty expensive media scan (i.e. grabbing media properties and frame shots from the movies etc) can run from the locally stored files and would not take hours to complete by downloading the required parts from the cloud again (and again..)). it would be awesome to get that "enable/disable" button right on the main UI so that I can directly see if its currently enabled or not - forgetting to disable uploading before sending hundreds of media files to the clouddrive volume usually ends up in serveral hours of media scan time and it seems I am not able to remember to disable uploading all the time. as the button-functionaility is already built into the UI (but hidden in another window) I think it could be somewhat easily made more accessible? 2.) I would like to have more than just one volume displayed in the overview - it would be really great to see whats going on with the drives (are they uploading /downloading ? are there any issues etc?) without the need to click that damn arrow button (and sometimes clicking it once too often and hitting the "add new drive screen"). as this probably needs some more work to the underlying code this change request only goes to the "nice to have" feature list - but its worth mentioning it anyway I think (check the attached made-up screenshot to see what I would like the UI to look like:) thanks for your time!

hm - just manually type in the desired value into the entry field, the drop down box only gives suggestions but is not limiting you from typing anything you desire into the entry field - like 50 GB, 1234 GB, etc

hey there, after having lots of problems with throttled downloads I am now using the latest build .730 (updated from .725) since yesterday evening (GMT+1) but it got even worse with that version - google seems to be throttling the downloads practially *all the time* rendering my drives to an almost unusable state now. manually copying files with total commander take ages to complete, using them with plex is impossible already. the drives even get dismounted/remounted which was never the case before. it seems the increasing number of users (?) use up the application wide api limits imposed by google way too fast. please, for gods sake, try to fix that problem by any means - maybe give the users the opportunity to enter their own application keys to get their "own limits" instead of having to share the overall limits with all clouddrive users. i really love clouddrive but it seems by now we are coming to a time where it really gets killed by its many users (.725 doesnt really work anymore aswell so I am pretty much left with no access to the files by now) 12:40:56.3: Warning: 0 : [ApiGoogleDrive:74] Google Drive returned error (rateLimitExceeded): Rate Limit Exceeded 12:40:56.3: Warning: 0 : [ApiHttp:74] HTTP protocol exception (Code=ServiceUnavailable). 12:40:56.3: Warning: 0 : [ApiHttp] Server is throttling us, waiting 4,613ms and retrying. 12:41:00.9: Warning: 0 : [ApiGoogleDrive:74] Google Drive returned error (rateLimitExceeded): Rate Limit Exceeded 12:41:00.9: Warning: 0 : [ApiHttp:74] HTTP protocol exception (Code=ServiceUnavailable). 12:41:00.9: Warning: 0 : [ApiHttp] Server is throttling us, waiting 8,846ms and retrying. 12:41:09.9: Warning: 0 : [ApiGoogleDrive:74] Google Drive returned error (rateLimitExceeded): Rate Limit Exceeded 12:41:09.9: Warning: 0 : [ApiHttp:74] HTTP protocol exception (Code=ServiceUnavailable). 12:41:09.9: Warning: 0 : [ApiHttp] Server is throttling us, waiting 16,406ms and retrying. 12:41:20.7: Warning: 0 : [ApiGoogleDrive:46] Google Drive returned error (internalError): Internal Error 12:41:20.7: Warning: 0 : [ApiHttp:46] HTTP protocol exception (Code=InternalServerError). 12:41:20.7: Warning: 0 : [IoManager:46] HTTP error (InternalServerError) performing I/O operation on provider. 12:41:20.7: Warning: 0 : [IoManager:46] Error performing I/O operation on provider.
