Re: Upload from SSD

How can I upload from an SSD directly?

Is it possible to upload to Dropbox directly from an SSD, so I can share video files with an editor?

I only have 512GB on my internal drive in my Mac, so there isn’t always room to store them on the Mac while I upload and then make the available offline etc.

Any help much appreciated!

Hi @Adamsaundersmusic, thanks for posting today.

 

Are you uploading the entire SSD, or certain files from the external drive?

 

This will help me to assist further!

Thanks for clarifying that for us @Adamsaundersmusic 

 

Would the walk-around described here work for what you had in mind by any chance?

That looks complex

If I uploaded the whole drive would that be a workaround?

I guess this would depend on your needs @Adamsaundersmusic 

 

You can give it a go if you like though, and let us know if anything else comes up.
