Ralph Posted December 20, 2022 Report Share Posted December 20, 2022 Is it possible to get a functioning DropBox Folder on a DriveBender Pool? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBers Posted December 20, 2022 Report Share Posted December 20, 2022 Shouldn't be any reason why you couldn't place a Dropbox folder in DriveBender. Are you having issues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Posted December 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2022 Big issues. Initially DropBox said My Pool wasn't a valid NTFS drive. When I put the DropBox folder in a subfolder, it sort of accepted it. However some DropBox folders & some files would not sync and one week on the whole DropBox functionality proved unreliable and I was in danger of ending up with a different un-flagged version of the same file on the computer with the pool. DropBox was indicating that files were still being uploaded, downloaded & synced. When I relocated the Dropbox folder to my (SSD) C drive, 5 minutes later everything DropBox was "Up To Date".

CBers Posted December 20, 2022 Report Share Posted December 20, 2022 Might be worth raising a Support Ticket to discuss with the devs. w3wilkes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w3wilkes Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 Some relevant questions for the ticket. What OS are you running Drive Bender on? What version of Drive Bender are you running? What is your internet speed for download and upload? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
extensive Posted December 27, 2022 Report Share Posted December 27, 2022 This was years ago but Anthony told me Dropbox insn't compatible. Roots around too much into the inner workings of how Drive Benders drivers work. I do not know if this has changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph Posted December 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2022 Thanks all. Sorry for not replying sooner - issues with signing in. I think I'm prepared to accept that DropBox simply is incompatible with DriveBender, which is my experience. I suggest that this fact be made more prominent, maybe a FAQ, for others to know sooner. Maybe I should have known when DropBox did not offer the root of the pool drive as a location to move the DropBox folder to. w3wilkes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
