Cobalt503

Pretty much just like the title says. I updated to the newest version because I didn't look at the forums first and I guess lots of people are having issues with the drives reauthorization issue on google drive and it's disconnecting the drives for me. So I thought maybe the newest version would fix that instead the UI won't open after it's been closed and some of the UI features like IO settings can't be accessed AT ALL. IDK if i should try to reinstall or what...

BUMP if not a recommended settings for plex but a recommended settings for different media types I.e. MP3 vs AVI since one only needs a 3-5mb buffer and the other needs a couple hundred mb buffer.

How about a way to detect if the internet is active and then retry connection to cloud?

Thanks for the follow up can't wait to see this implemented.. Currently working on about 4 cloud drives and toggling the settings on all of them is getting tedious.. THank you!!

I'd be willing to drop a 20 dollar donation for some timer options.. just saying.. I'm sure others would want this feature.. should start outsourcing some talent I have high hopes for this software..

Honestly this is actually a big deal for me.. my roommates can't use the internet unless it's throttled so I'm constantly having to adjust this...

I would really benefit from a scheduler for bandwidth management much like utorrents scheduler. Also the 4-5 clicks / cloud drive to change the bandwidth is a lot.. I know I've asked and you said you would submit a feature request. But squeaky wheel gets the grease ya know.. PLZ PLZ PLZ give us some better bandwidth management controls and maybe a scheduler... (ALSO a global bandwidth control would be nice instead of managing per cloud drive since i have 3)

Following...

WTF?? I want to uninstall and I can't find an unistaller. So I've disabled from my startup menu. But this shouldn't be the only way to stop the software. Please add an uninstaller.

I NEED THIS FEATURE TOO!! It's completely random even without the internet dropping I have to hit "retry connection" from time to time because of dismounts. Would be nice if there was a way to detect internet and reconnect I really don't know why this wouldn't be a feature. Like I'll be actively playing a game and an HDD will drop for no reason at all.. It's not being access it just disconnects. I alt tab hit retry and it connects back up right away. Would be nice if I didn't have to manually hit retry.. Or if I didn't come home to a disconnected HDD as often as I do..

For the record smarty pants I was able to duplicate the issue using cloud drive. Which means it absolutely has everything to do with their software. Feel free to start contributing though. Only wish I had made a video of it.. However if it happens again I'll be sure to send you a link. "I have no idea what that does" "I don't know" "I wonder why"

EVEN if you detach before reboot it still goes through 8+ hour indexing

I thought I lost content then I got it back. Happened 2 more times. The stress is real with your software I'm not going to lie it's been real difficult trusting. I've put more money into this than just your license too. I've bought new modems and upgraded connection speeds to improve my experience using your software. Lately however the random stops and disconnects have been getting more regular. It seems they are software based please tell me you guys are looking into the speed throttles to see where they are coming from. I had a MAJOR problem recently that seems to have fixed itself. I lost access to a drive and did everything i could to "retry/reauthorize" and every time I tried to connect it would kill the internet on my computer.. but not all the internet like 90% of it. I could use apps like mumble but parts of steam would stop working and all web browsing would stop working. I was going to make a video for you because I was able to duplicate it at least 3 times. https://youtu.be/9G6FQncOrac my experience and transfer rate drop issue

I am having this issue to.. It's only when I have data upload pending. Size of the clouddrive matters I'm currently set at 256TB even though it's not using it all it has to verify and takes 6 hours now. Used to only take 4 hours with the 16TB drives.

I've noticed transfers dropping to 0 as well.

Pretty straight forward. I created a few new cloud drives now that I'm on a legit Gsuite and not worried about losing data as much. However the old drive and the new are both using the same HDD for cache and it's not causing the HDD to make loud noises. If SBCD isn't writing data it's fine but it's always writing data. Would be nice if I could change the cache drive to a seperate HDD for each cloud drive I have. But that would require me to disconnect each clouddrive and remember which one (write down) was one with each HDD as I set them up. ALSO! Another feature I would like is to see all my disk on 1 page instead of panels that limit my view to only 1 at a time. Also I'd like to see which cache drive was assigned to each cloud drive below where the pie graph is shown or something.

What's the word??

I don't understand your question. But it's 10$ / user for 1tb of cloud after 5 users or 50$ it's unlimited data. You would need to convince 4 friends to pay 10$ / month for their own unlimited cloud storage.

So to be clear there is no confirmed way to transfer data and save my content without a VPS?

Thank you VERY MUCH for a detailed response I think this should get more attention. I'll probably copy paste your directions to reddit threads asking the same questions as I think this is probably the easiest to read and understand directions. Thanks again!

This sounds bad.. we're all freaking out about our data would be nice to have some solid tutorials on relocating / cloning.

Word on the street is they aren't enforcing the 1tb limit for those with less than 5 users. Also admin has the ability to delete people's shit so good luck trying to convince people you aren't ever going to abandon the project / delete their shit.

I hate to ask but could I get some steps written out? Also I currently have 700GB pending upload so I hope to do this after that finishes but would like to do it before hand if I can get safe clear instructions on how to do so. I get step 1 I think (obtain a vps with windows remote access) Step 2. install cloud drive on VPS and mount my cloud drive to the VPS Step 3. Copy the folder named "Cloud Drive" from my old google drive and transfer it to my new google drive? ORRR Do I want to create the 256TB NEW drive (main goal) and move the files through cloud drive from old HDD to new HDD? Seems Like there should be a faster better way?? Step 4. ?? I'm sorry I'm totally lost..

What version of windows do I need to get on VPS and or can I install cloud drive to any version of windows?

I have a 10TB drive on one of those potentially volatile accounts and I recently set up gsuite as a backup and am going to pay the 10$/month for it and I would like to transfer over what I've upload already upload since my upload is crap. PLEASE tell me there is some way to do this?
