Dropbox and Transcend JetDrive Lite expansion cards

I was wondering if anyone had had any success storing their Dropbox folder on one of these expansion cards? I have one for my MacBook Pro and would love to keep a rather large Dropbox folder on there...

    Hmm, not sure about that. I moved the whole Dropbox folder to the Transcend and once you format it and install a bit of software that mounts and unmounts the drive when putting the computer to sleep it all works really well.

Sorry for not replying earlier.  You've probably found it by now.  If not, here you go.

I will say that this solution quit working for me a while back with a new MacOS update. I switched to BaseQi, which is working slightly better than the Transcend did after that OS update, but not perfectly like my Trascend used to.
