I'm wondering if there is a place I can go to get some more nitty-gritty details about exactly what services SBCD can interface with. I felt that was missing in the otherwise pretty good product features overview. (hope I didn't just overlook something).
I currently use primarily Gdrive (and specifically including some "shared drives", formerly "Teamdrives"). Knowing if SBCD can support those are pretty relevant to me. It seems that not all solution do for whatever reason. Coming from rclone I am also spoiled for having a lot of flexibility - so it would be nice to get an idea of how SBCD compared in that department. The cloud-market is ever changing and data may have to move as the years go by. Having options then can be pretty important.
Love rclone, but I originally came here just to scope out the pooling software solution and I stumbled upon SBCD and saw it uses a block-based approach and kernel mode implementations. Both of those offer up some interesting options I'd love to experiment with at the very least, so I'm considering maybe just going for the bundle. (does it cost a lot more to buy it piecemeal later?).
Somewhat unrelated bonus question: What is SBCD's strategy when it comes to limitations in number of files? I understand 20MB blocks are used for now? It seems like you'd start running into the limits around 10TB. Maybe enough for a typical user, but also hardly a non-issue. It's just the first thought that ran through my mind when I read about the block-level approach and potential pitfalls. Perhaps my ideal solution may use a combination of both, but it's much better to be aware of a reasonable limitation than to find out the unpleasant way
Somewhat unrelated bonus question 2: Is Linux support something that is likely to ever happen?
