I have just begun my testing of CloudDrive and I'm already running into an issue with creating a new on my unlimited Google Drive account. I've tried on two machines so far, and while I was able to create a drive at first, I destroyed it and tried creating another and now anytime I try to create a drive the formatting never completes. I moved to another Windows 10 machine and installed the trial there and I can't create a drive even the first time there. Sometimes the formatting times out and I see an RPC server unavailable error in the CloudDrive GUI. Sometimes the drive just stays uninitialized. This is on the latest 64-bit beta build 1.0.0.444.
Here's the settings I am testing at the moment, though I've varied most of them and still saw a problem creating the drive.
Drive name: GDU
Drive size: 20TB
Local cache: 1GB and autounlock set
Drive Encryption : On with pass key
Local cache drive D: (my second, non-system SSD)
Sector Size: 8kb
Storage Chunk size: 100mb
Chunk cache size: 100mb
Verify chunk integrity: on
Format and assign: on
That knight-rider status bar switches from yellow (formatting) to green (status) and then back to yellow (pinning data) and then back to green, but I never see a new drive letter appear. This is also the time when I get the RPC server unavaiable error. (HRESULT: 0x800706BA).
When I look at the disk in disk management, it just shows a 20TB RAW formatted parttition. If I try to format it, the format dialog does not show a file system or allocation unit size in the dropdown, so I can't proceed. What should I try next?
