like it said in the question, since CloudDrive doesnt support Amazon Drive , when using the AWS key to connect amazon to Cloud Drive, what cloud storage is it using? Is it my amazon drive storage or ??

 

They're different services and we support Amazon S3 natively. 

 

We do support Amazon Cloud Drive, sort of.  It's complicated. As Lawdie has linked.  

 

Basically, we do support it, but we do not recommend using it, right now.

 

AWS is completely separate to Amazon Drive, on AWS you get charged per each file you write to the service and get a monthly bill.

Explains what version you need if you plan on using amazon Drive

 

It's worse than that. Amazon charges you for the amount of data stored on their servers, as well as API calls, and for bandwidth usage. 

 

I've actually broken it down here:

But basically, "expensive".
