I also use FreeFileSync to trigger more frequent backups of critical files ( from my hard drive to external drives ). In my case, I only sync selected ( frequently changing ) files and folders, using Google Drive. So, yes SyncBackPro has no trouble reading from and writing to the virtual drive. One of the reasons I chose Icedrive is the virtual drive feature, meaning I can keep things simple. This seems to work very well with Icedrive virtual drive. I can trigger the backups manually or by schedule. To minimize scanning of my source ( external drive ) and destination ( Icedrive virtual drive ) I have a separate backup profile for each set of folders. So I set up a SyncBackPro backup profile to mirror a master folder on my external drive to the Icedrive virtual drive. To real-time sync my 1.5 TB of stuff would be unwieldy ( continually scanning all of it in both places for changes ) as only bits and pieces would change in any given day. In other words, not for real-time syncing. I use the words “sync” and “backup” to mean different things. Your 3 MBps is 24 Mbps which to me seems pretty good. If you want “fast” then every piece of the pipeline would have to be fast. And how your ISP relates to the Icedrive servers. Your CPU, your computer I/O, disk drive access speed, wifi throughput, your ISP capacity, and whatever limitations there are at Icedrive. Upload “speed” depends on the slowest factor in the pipeline. And there was a lot of variation even during the fast and slow periods. The speeds varied a lot based on time of day and upon file size. Which suggests the slowdowns were external to my system and not my ISP. Even during the “slow” uploads my ISP was showing 50 Mbps on the speedtest.

Most of the time I was getting the full 50 Mbps, but sometimes it was as slow as 3 to 5 Mbps. I recently spent several days uploading 1.5 TB of unencrypted files and folders to Icedrive storage.
#Freefilesync webdav download
I have 300 Mbps download and 50 Mbps upload service. And whatever is the slowest pipe in your connection. What matters is how fast “Icedrive” can process what you upload. It doesn’t seem to matter how fast your connection is. How can I get the upper end of my internet connection so I can upload my files quickly? Thanks I am restricted to using the Icedrive desktop apps as I cannot run my own synch application to the mapped drive as it will error out. Can you share what are the bandwidth restrictions and threads? I feel I should be able to easily get 300MBs - 400MBs so obviously 3MBs is not acceptable. They are not uploaded to my encryption folder so there is no overhead with encryption.Īdditionally, I am seeing only 3 files uploaded at the same time so there is some apparent restrictions that are occurring. The files I am uploading typically average 2.5G as they are backup image files of content. However, using the Windows desktop app to synch files I am at best getting 3-5MBs. I have 1GB Internet Connection with my ISP and using SpeedTest.Net and Ookla and several sites they indicate I am getting 900-980 in both uploads and downloads.

I have read several posts on slow upload speeds but no real answers how to resolve.
