UClaudius Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Hi, I'm currently on .463 - when/if I update to a newer version are there any benefits from creating a new cloud drive or are the updates on the application side mainly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 steffenmand Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 A LOT of speed and stability! you should update! You have to make new drives to utilize things fully though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 UClaudius Posted June 10, 2016 Author Share Posted June 10, 2016 I guess that was my worry, to gain the additional benefits I'll have to re-create and re-upload several terabytes worth of data every update? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 steffenmand Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 No, the change for drives is due to their implementation of minimal download size, which makes it possible to download larger pieces at a time. If 1-2 mb pieces are fine for you, just keep your existing drives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, all builds try to maintain backwards compatibility with the clouddrive disks, to ensure that this is never something that you have to do. However, in some cases, it *is* beneficial to do so, as there are additional options (such as the minimum download size, for those lucky enough to have very high bandwidths).
