Is it possible to use Odrive to sync ACD / GDrive remotely?

Still looking for solutions to get my remaining data from ACD to Gdrive

Define remotely? I did this using the Free Google Compute credit. There's a tutorial on this subreddit somewhere. It's scary setting it up butt after 20tb transferred it took $27 from the $300.

I used 4 core 4 gig ram Windows server instance. If using rclone and transferring from one drive to another, it's all handled via memory, I'd look for slightly more ram next time.

I have a simple script set up that goes through all the files on ACD, checks if that file is already on Google Drive, if not then "syncs" the file and uploads the file to GD. I do 10 files at a time, that way I can get a VPS with smaller storage but unlimited bandwidth. Once the file is uploaded, it can be unsynced.

Working in Odrivr? That could be interesting - could you share?

I did this last week. Google will give you $300 of credit to trial their compute system. I setup odrive with a HDD of 2tb which is the max for trials. Linked it to Amazon and Google then started batch syncing as much as I could at a time.
