Not sure on that one. Perhaps tech support will jump in and answer?

Ahh, I see. I did try manually increasing the size of the drive by typing in the number, but the size in the main program screen did not change. When I quit out of CloudDrive and re-opened it, the drive size was updated to the larger size. So, looks like that is a UI bug, not a file system or other one.

Hey all, I am creating a drive using an SFTP server as a backup device, but I am hitting an issue. I have 16TB of space on the server, but the maximum size of drive I seem to be able to create is 10TB. I can't select any bigger option from the drop-down menu, and when I manually resize the drive to be larger, it just seems to ignore it. Is this a limitation of CloudDrive, of the connection or of the server? I guess I could just create a couple of drives and use DrivePool to fit them together, but I wanted to check before I start copying files over.

Well, no replies to this one, so I thought I would post my own results. I used SFTP. The connection seemed stable, but Hetzner is damn slow. I was only able to get a speed of 3mbps, which meant that it would take over 180 days to copy the 10TB I wanted. So, back to looking for another provider with decent speeds.

Hi all, I am setting up CloudDrive on my Windows server to access a Hetzner Storage Box which I am trying out with a view to using it as an offsite copy of my media files. The plan is to set up the Hetzner box as a CloudDrive pool, then use DrivePool to dupe the data. There is about 10 to 12 TB in total. So, I was wondering what the best way to connect might be? Hetzner supports a number of protocols, but which is generally the bestest? Interested more in robustness than speed: this is for an offsite copy that won't be accessed that often, but needs to be kept up with the local copy. Any thoughts?
