I second this!

Thank you so much u have no idea how long I've looking for this

Oh my god, thank you! Short, sweet and to the point.

Thank you, this is exactly what I was looking for, I can now sync up files between desktop and laptop. On another note, let's say I have an .odt file, my workaround for the read-only nature of the folder is to copy the file into a local folder, make changes and then replace the old file in the mounted folder with the new one: is this the only way or can I make it so I can open the .odt file straight from the mounted folder and make changes that sync up immediately?

Thank you so much for this video man, you saved a Linux newbie today

thank you so much, it helped me a lot!

Thank you Shawn, very helpfull video, it worked like a charm.

Thank you, this is really cool and helpful. One thing to note, with mounting a google drive remote, gdocs dont seems to work correctly, according to the website it's a known issue. Sync/move/copy works fine. And with images (I'm a photographer) it's still super helpful. I wish I learned rclone sooner. Thanks for the super easy guide!

Thanks!!! This is perfect!

I noticed you're using Daemon would you recommend using that as a storage server? I understand you use it to mount Images such as HDD and games, as I use to play around with Daemon Tool for mounting game images when I was younger, Since then I had forgotten about using it.

I totally remember using Daemon Tools too! (Specifically to play Starcraft...) But no, this is just a coincidence. “Daemon” is a generic term for server processes, and the command just reloads systemd’s configuration files. Now I wanna play Starcraft! :D

Do you have any experience with creating encrypted remotes to perform local encrypted backups? I've tried everything and I can't get the thing to work.

i am constantly on the road, with sometimes not internet connection available to me, is it possible for this to download the files in local cache when i dont have internet, so i can work on them and later when i get connectivity update the files on the cloud drive?

After restarting my computer I don't see anything listed in the gdrive. Is there a sync or autosync that I should do?

Does it sync real-time?

Hey sorry if this question sounds a bit silly. Is it really just syncing (similar to shortcut) with the gdrive or is it downloading all those files and put it in your local machine?

Thank you for your question! The files will be synced to the mount or the system, but they are merely cached and when needed, it will re-download the file to the location on the system. We hope this is helpful. Thank you for learning with us!

@@cmaxz817There might be a mix between time and memory allocated. The system will hold the files within the system for the give duration, or until the cache has been depleted, then it will purge the oldest content. The cache can be increased within the config files. Typically, when you have the sync setup it will pull down the relevant information to the system for access, but the file itself may still be stored in the cloud as needed.

Does Rclone have the same function as google drive file stream ?, I mean you can view you files directly through file explorer without downloading it first ?.

yes, you can also copy and paste to and from the mount and it'll paste to the drive, same with renaming a file, it renames the file on the google drive.

Untested suggestion: create a cronjob with @reboot to run the rclone line that mounts what you need. At the Pi's reboot, it should run that rclone command and mount your drive like you did so from the command line yourself.

Either in your docker compose file for the bit: volumes: - /path/to/library:/config - /path/to/tvseries:/tv - /path/to/movies:/movies You'd just do: /gdrive/tv:tv /gdrive/movies:/movies etc. Or if using cli to start the instance, it would be -v /gdrive/tv:tv -v /gdrive/movies:movies etc.

I run an Rclone mount on one PC, thats whole job is to run programs to download and add files to the drive. i have a separate server that mounts the same drive and hosts it through plex. depending on how its set up, the mount will only see the files uploaded to the drive via Rclone. all the files added by hand on google.com are more or less not there to the mount.

You could cover some settings as for example --network-mode or cache. Example zou provided just won't work well.

@kl3mta3

Be careful with network-mode also its not really needed, just mount the drive on any system you want to have access. i currently have 3 pcs all connected to the same Gdrive, but all with separate mounts. its much less buggy than network-mode. also cache is outdated, but i still use it currently. if you have questions id be happy to answer them

you said have 40Tb of data, and up to 10 users, im assuming you host a media server such as plex. Ive been using Rclone for a very long time for just that. However, i noticed you didnt use a cache, you straight mounted the remote. Have you ran into any API bans from Google when running library searches?

@@cbtnuggets ive had a google business account for years now and currently have well over 100tb google drive hosted with Rclone. im very familiar with that. You just deflected away from my question. My question was had you ran into any api bans not using a cache rather than a straight mount. I get the opinion you don't really know what I'm even talking about. or what the benefits of a cache are. Clearly, you haven't hit any API bans because you don't seem to know what they are. Which is fine. But just say that. Or have me explain it.
