    Fuck you one drive.

    Backing up all my content on Onedrive, so far 460GB has gone up in zipped files. Problem arrives when downloading. I can only download one file at a time, with 1,000s of files that's fucked up.

    The problem is after downloading, unzipping is the problem. One at a time is hit and miss, downloading a whole sub-folder containing lots of zipped files, only one unzips.

    Anyone else had this problem and found a solution?



    Blowout deal. 880 videos, 2,400 image sets, plus many RAW videos. $500.
    PM me for a deal. Skype Paulmarkham70

      500gb HDD are like $40. Why fuck around with uploading all that to the cloud when storage media is soooooo cheap?

      Spend you some brain.

          If you need to send to someone Paul you'll just have to let them download the onedrive app and sign in using your credentials (it'll sync everything to their computer), not the best solution but it'll work.
          This is based on my Google drive and dropbox experience.

          I don't really understand your problem otherwise.

          CF, media storage is cheap but I think this is for Paul when he gets a purchase on his content. I've sent stuff half way around the world.
          I had a guy in New Zealand buy hard drives of porn off of me (he only got 10 GB of bandwidth a month) and it cost me $50-60 to ship the hdd to him.

                  Paul probably gets orders here and there but no where near enough to justify a server and transferring the files onto a external hdd is a pain in the ass every time and he doesn't have to worry about the shipping costs and where the hell he is shipping to.

                  This is why he's going through the pain of one drive.

                  Edit: Maybe Paul is just trying to back up his files but I'm making my statements based on a Skype conversation I had with him last year about loading files onto one drive so he can give purchasers access.

                      Ok then. a $45 per month server from SoYouStart.com with 2TB disk space.

                      No restrictions on upload or download.

                      Edit: Then again, getting the old man to even work out setting up a server is probably hopeless.

                          Synology NAS. 216j is the newest if I remember well for 2 drive home/small office reasons. super cheap, fast, and quiet. You can add 2 8TB drives and can forget aboyt backups for a lifetime.

                              Buy an external drive from Amazon.

                              It will just plug into your usb port.

                              Cost is cheap.

                                              The backup si for me, should GHard Drives crash. The most important part is as Jhonny points out. It allows me to move a lot of files into one folder and sell blowouts.

                                                  You can get a low cost server with RAID 1 and 2TB of storage for around ~$30 - $40 a month from soyoustart.com.

                                                  Alternatively a 4 Bay NAS and an offsite 1TB USB HDD will provide ample protection.

                                                      What an ugly asshole thing to say. There was no reason for that, unless he's your sugar Daddy.

                                                                              • Install GoodSync on your computer.
                                                                              • Create a local folder on your computer called "Specials" (or whatever you want)
                                                                              • Create a new "Job" and have sync "left to right" (left is your hard drive, right is the server)
                                                                              • In the new job, set to sync "specials" to a folder on your server. You can supply it with the username and password.
                                                                              • Put whatever files you want into the folder on your computer and click the Sync button in GoodSync and walk away. It will keep whatever you want synced between your computer and the server.

                                                                                                  Failure of an SSD is likely to be sudden, with total loss of data. At least with a spinning drive there may be odd noises to give you some hints that it's on the way out, and if it's not the heads or control circuitry that fail, data loss may be restricted to a tiny fraction of the drive.

                                                                                                  Anyway, there's no such thing as a reliable drive. Back up your data.

                                                                                                      I want to be able to store everything on one server that customers can get a secure password to and download one time.

In my lack of knowledge of how the Internet, programming, Servers work. I chose a system like OneDrive, I assumed such a popular service would be idiot proof. My experience makes me wonder how they're still in business.

                                                                                                      In defence of my lack of knowledge of how the online technical side works. This is the porn business and I do know that side.

                                                                                                                  The best is of course a backup USB hard drive, plus a cloud service.

Maybe you can do this in Germany or nearby and hand deliver the drive yourself. That is when time is worth more than money to you.

                                                                                                                      You would have the server bill to deal with so it is an ROI thing too.

                                                                                                                                      Paul, we also have found this the problem, now our server has closed, we would usually have said to people to down load the folder where now, we use google drive.

                                                                                                                                      You can make folders & directories in google drive, this way, you could download a whole folder. It maybe worth your time checking out the larger sized, paid Google drive

Dropbox is i think best tho they cost a bit more the others.
