#Syncthing vs btsync 2015 update#

I would very much like to see such a feature. Files smaller than that limit would be kept whole. I wouldn’t want to try to open a huge file in the browser anyway. Another possibility might be to let the user select a file size limit, above which the file would be split up. Without that, using a container-based encryption technology would be impossible. For people who use encryption containers such as TrueCrypt, being able to select the container for delta-only synchronization would be great. Everything outside of that folder structure should be viewable in the browser interface of Drive. I would want to be able to select the folder that contains all of these files (the root of the encfs folder) and have it only upload deltas. I use encfs, so I have many files with jibberish names. I specifically choose which files to upload unencrypted if I want to be able to view them in a browser.

Most of my files are encrypted and are not viewable in Google Drive web interface anyway. If I could selectively choose which files to break up into blocks, yes.

#Syncthing vs btsync 2015 update#

Is it possible to to only update changed portions of a file in Google Drive? If so, please consider adding this functionality to Insync! I undestand that you are limited to what Google’s API’s give you the tools to do. If I can only use Google Drive for small working files and have to use something else for my other data, I’ll just use the something else for everything. Making a small change in a VM results in a ton of data having to be uploaded again, 99% of which was just uploaded recently. But my data includes video editing projects and virtual machine files. Insync, with it’s cross platform support seemed a miracle at first - I might actually be able to use Google Drive for this. Unlimited space and up to 5TB individual file size limit makes Google Drive a potentially attractive place to store an offsite backup of my data, and to keep my data synchronized between different computers. Uploading to Google Drive is extremely slow regardless of how fast your Internet connection is. If there is any way possible that Google’s APIs will allow you to only synchronize the blocks of data that were changed within a file, Insync desperately needs this. only transfer differneces in files to limit the amount of bandwidth needed to keep the files in sync. Other syncronization services such as Dropbox, BTSync, SyncThing, etc. It appears that when you use Insync to synchronize a large file, then make a small change to that file, Insync re-uploads the entire file.
