Choose server location
I have a dropbox professional.
Is it possible to transfer my files to a server located in EU?

Not with Professional, no. That is something you can only do with a Business licence holding at least 10 seats: https://help.dropbox.com/accounts-billing/security/physical-location-data-storage

I wonder how much of their users are businesses with more than 10 seats, as I understand its common for established business to target bigger, high value accounts with age, but isn't Dropbox's whole value proposition to make it easy for individuals, contractors, freelancers, outsourced teams to all collaborate? With non-US users already agreed to T&Cs for storage in the US it seems an unhelpful way to handle their (if not yet regulatory) moral obligation for EU data sovereignty.
Strategically it has a sense of anti-unionist capitalism, whereas tactically, it reads like juvenile irresponsibility.
Tell me Mark (individual community member), what benefit does this offer afford yourself? If none, I propose your answer is void, as the solution is fundamentally unacceptable.
