Best settings for Cloud drive

[rfs830]

ok being that I have had 3 100tb google drive cloud drives all fail on me, im going to give it one more try as I do like the software when it works.  

I want to know what is the best setting to set up a new drive?  I can use drive pool as well if that would make it better.  I read that its best to set up 60TB and to stay with ntfs as my last drive was 100TB REFS that I wont be using this time around.  

Just hoping to try to keep my drive for longer then a a year this time around.  

 

Thank you in advance

55TB Drives is the max windows can maintain, if you want trim and defrag.

REFS is a dead filesystem at this time as its no where near ready for primetime usage. Always stick with NTFS.

 

I've also seen CloudDrive paired with Drive pool to maintain an extremely large drive collection in one place.

thanks for the information.  I guess I could do a bunch of 55TB cloud drives pooled.  That might work out well.  So far at the moment Im uploading right into my google drive due to it being a business account but I might have to look into doing a cloud drive with drive pool setup.

I wouldn't say dead.  It's far from mature enough to be used with anything other than Storage Spaces, and a mirrored or parity array.
