I'm using CloudDrive to backup files to Google Drive. I was using "Allway Sync", but had the issues I will describe below, so switched to "GoodSync", but this issue persists so I have to assume it's related to CloudDrive?
I'm using an empty 3TB drive as the cache location (so space is not an issue), I have Cloudbit settings as default (cache 1GB but allowing it to grow as needed). If I set up a sync with either of the above programs for a smaller selection of files like My Pictures (couple of GB) it will all copy to the cache drive quickly then happily saturate my internet upload speed and be uploaded with no problems. As soon as I try and sync a larger selection of folders, say My Movies, I can see it copying to the cache drive, but the next morning I can no longer RDP to my server.
The server is still running, I can see a list of the shared folders from my PC over my home network, Team Speak is running as I can see the entry on my PC, but trying to read/write or RDP to the server is sooo slow to the point it deosn't happen. The server runs WHS 2011, I have the latest beta version of Cloudrive & Drivepool. The files I'm copying are on the Pool but as mentioned the cache drive is separate and not used for anything else. The only way I've been able to get back into the server previously is to hard reboot it by holding down the power button...which can cause problems of it's own!
I'm running out of ideas as to what the problem is? Any ideas? Getting pretty frustrated as I know this should work but it's not :-(
