1) I am new to clouddrive. So I created a 1TB clouddrive on my Google Drive. I copied a 2GB folder of pictures to the newly created drive locally. The upload was fine. Now when I want to access the folder in my local machine the entire folder is downloaded again. There are many subfolders in the main pictures folder. Is it possible to just access a single file and not download the entire folder in the cache? I am used to Dropbox and Google Drive where I can access a particular file directly and download that file locally. Hope it makes sense. I am limited by 1TB comcast data/month unfortunately.
2) Is it possible to use Clouddrive as 'upload and forget' permanent backup solution? I would need to access the data only in case of disaster recovery and not for normal usage.
