Ingestion of files is easy, almost stupid easy. It would be great to be able to
- Use a new hardware external drive if the first external drive dies, and now we are relying on Backup only.
- Have a bulk export button for the drive. This could be premium, like creating a special export or mailing a drive (yay teeth in pricing)
- Make the bulk downloads of folders/files better without unmanageable limits or file type problems.
- Integrate with a 3rd party app to drive them business to allow all of this to work, if the Dropbox team will not be building on it. This could drive Zapier or someone else a bunch of revenue
