Moving data from smaller drive to bigger - same provider


mikeyo

Question

Hi, i was kinda caught off guard with some drive settings limitations, allowing me to only create upto 10TB in windows without change of some settings. I have this drive nearly full. Is there any way to move that data to a new drive (on same provider - google drive), without the need of redownloading/reuploading it all?

Unfortunately not, but you also don't necessarily need to. You can simply expand the drive size from the CloudDrive UI, add another partition on the same drive, and use DrivePool to pool them together, if you have a license for it. The limit on expanding the drive and a limit of the volume based on the cluster size are not the same thing. You can still expand the drive and create another volume on it. 

Otherwise you'll just have to copy the data from one drive to the other.
