Sync storage on external drive

[George Epstein1]

Is there a plan to permit the Egnyte Desktop Sync folder to be housed on an external drive?

Our production team is working with multiple Terabytes of data and it's not feasible to house that on the primary computer. They are currently storing files on a separate cloud server, but we would like to put it all into Egnyte, if possible.

Hi George,

There are no such plans for the Desktop Sync. Desktop Sync is an application which has its own limits and the way it works. The following link would throw some more light on the environment where you can use this application.

For larger data sets, we recommend users to move to Storage Sync appliances. We offer Storage Sync on Netegar devices, Vmware and Hyper-V. If you would be interested, I can send over the relevant articles to you or you can browse our Knowledge Base and easily find them.
