Thank you , we will look at it a bit more but from a first glace it seems like the tool was having a hard time uploading your files to Azure.

What was the sample: a few very large files or a lot of small files?

Thanks

  Hi Simon,
  
  It was 37,1GB and 446 files and 54 folders, i also tried it with half of that number and i got the same result.

    I believe one of the publically available Microsoft APIs only supports uploads up to 2 GB per file in order to boost performance. If they are using that API, that may be contributing to your issue.
