None of you seem to understand what this person is asking. Google Drive has a copy command in the API that allows if to make a duplicate of a file in a different drive. Using Raidrive as it is, if I want to copy a file from my X:\TeamDriveA folder to my X:\TeamDriveB folder, Raidrive downloads the file from TeamDriveA to my local machine and then uploads it to TeamDriveB. Using the Google API, you can just tell it to take the file in TeamDriveA and duplicate it in TeamDriveB. This takes maybe 3 seconds and I’m not even sure if file size is even a factor in how long it takes, since I’m sure the way Google’s storage algorithm’s work, the data is still only stored on the server once, but now with 2 different pointers to it.
This is the call that the Google Drive UI uses when you use the “Make a Copy” option on a file.
In this person’s case, it seems like they’d want to upload the file to TeamDriveA and then their sync software would copy that to the other 8 drives. If that file was, say, 2 GB, that would be 18 GB of data needing to upload. Using the API copy method, they would only need to upload 2 GB.
Though this may be a small enough use case that it’d be better to use software specifically built to sync multiple Google Drive folders than Raidrive and a standard sync software.
