Backup Gdrive to ACD

[Rasputin]

Hello, loving the product so far!

 

Here is what I'm looking to do...I've looked through the forum and found questions somewhat related to what I want to do, but I've mainly found making a backup from one provider to the same provider (ie Gdrive to Gdrive). I currently have 1 CloudDrive setup using Google Drive. What I would like to do is use a tool like MultCloud (or something else) to make a backup of my Google Drive account to my Amazon Drive account. This would save the extreme hassle and time consumption of locally copying the contents manually. However, I'm wondering if I need to do anything special with the contents before copying it over to my Amazon Drive account? I don't necessarily intend on mounting the drive on ACD, just have a backup I can move back to Google Drive in case something were to happen to my Google Drive. Is it just as simple as copying the contents of my Google Drive to Amazon Drive and then copying back if something does happen?

 

Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

You mean copying the raw data from the provider, to provider? 

If so, then this isn't supported here.  The reason for that is that each provider does use different formats, based on the provider "profile" (eg, it's quirks and issues).  So moving the data over to a different provider means that the drive may/will not work.

Yes and no. Basically, I am just looking to make a redundant copy, not actually mount and use the drive on Amazon. It's strictly for the purposes of having a backup (just in case).

If you just want to make a copy, then yes, that should be fine. But as I said above, you absolutely must make sure that the drive(s) are detached at the time that you copy the contents over, or you may end up with a corrupted copy of the drive.
