Best way to transfer files from Cloudrive to rclone?

[achok16]

Hi,

 

So I have some media on my cloudrive that I'd like to transfer to my rclone/plexdrive. Everything is still on my gsuites account.

 

Outside of downloading the data locally, and then uploading via something like rclone browser - can anyone suggest another method to do this? I have about 5 tb of data to move.

 

Thanks.

That would be the only way to do it. CloudDrive is a block based solution, while rClone is a file based solution. The data, as stored on the cloud provider, is incompatible between them. You'll have to download and reupload the data.

Srcrist is correct.

 

The simplest way to do this would be to mount the drive, and then copy it directly from the drive to the account in quesiton.... though, that's problematic, as you may hit API limits, by doing so.

 

Otherwise, yeah, copy locally, and then upload.
