Let me explain. I use 2 pc's in perpetuity. when I rebuild the first, it becomes the secondary, the secondary goes to my kids or the spare parts closet etc. I take the image from the "current" first and restore it to the "new current" i build, and at that point, the "new secondary" does its own thing and needs its own backups.
I just set up clouddrive on my main pc as a means to ship macrium backups to the cloud since macrium cannot back-up to dropbox directly (at least not on your system drive). I want to be able to do this on the secondary as well.
If something were to happen to the secondary and I needed access to the cloud backup for it, could i get to it on my main pc? If they both had cloud drive installed, and they both had their own license, and assuming they can both connect to the same dropbox account etc. could one pc see the others data in dropbox and pull it down/decrypt it for use?
If the answers are yes, how does that appear in the dropbox folder? would i see on the opposing pc a second apps/stablebit clouddrive/cloudpart-xxx-xxx-xxx-xx folder in my dropbox folder?
