Re: 400GB Data transfer to Dropbox for one time

400GB Data transfer to Dropbox for one time

Dear All,

I have a file which is 400GB capacity. If I want to transfer this file to Dropbox Cloud for one time, can I do this action if I joined the "Professional of Dropbox" Plan? Please inform me anymore. Thank you for your assistance!

 

Best Regards,

Wilson Choy.

Dear Jay,

You don't answer my question until now, so you imply I can successfully download and upload 400GB file if I join the Dropbox Plus Plan with 2GB data per transfer.

It is because our NAS has 1.3TB data that need to backup to Cloud now. After 2 years, we may need to change to Dropbox Professional Plan for expanded data size (over 2TB).

Anyway, if we pay the fee via VISA Card of your web site, would you mind to inform me whether you will provide a new login name and password to me immediately? Please inform me anymore. Thanks!

 

Best Regards,

Dear Jay,

On the other hands, we may temporarily use the Dropbox "Plus Plan", but if our data is suddenly over 2TB size, can I change to Dropbox "Professional Plan" immediately? Please inform me any situation. Thanks!

Dear Sir,

In this morning, I asked my Boss about the Dropbox Plan again. He told me that he will use Dropbox Professional Plan now.

Would you mind to inform me how to get the Login information after transferred the payment of VISA Card? It is because I don't know how to use it. Please inform me anymore. Many Thanks!

Dear Sir,

My Boss also concerns about the encryption problem about Dropbox Cloud.

When I transfer some documents to the Dropbox Cloud, will these documents encrypt and safely transfer to the Dropbox Cloud?

On the other hands, when some documents already stored in the Dropbox Cloud, will these documents have encryption that hacker can't see the contents?

Please inform me anymore. Many Thanks!

The best method to upload a 400 GB file would be to move it into the Dropbox folder for the Dropbox desktop application to upload it gradually to the site.

Most likely, uploading a file that size via the site directly would result in an error.

You can upgrade an account to Plus or Professional immediately, and you don't need a new login. Your existing account will be upgraded. You can also upgrade from Plus to Professional.
