Best way to setup PC harddrive for syncing d drive folder to onedrive to mac

Copper Contributor

Morning, 

New Onedrive user. 

I'm having trouble getting around best way to setup Onedrive / PC / Macbook. 

 

Quick summary...

PC is daily system.

Have 1tb "c" drive m2 nvme HD with windows/icloud/onedrive/dropbox and few large backup files. Also have 2tb "d" drive - older harddrive with all general work data/scans/videos/movies - which is general daily work folder. 

 

Want some data (approx 100gb) of D drive folder to be accessible remotely on macbook which already has onedrive on it. 

 

Want this D drive folder to sync between macbook and pc drive. Need to access/work/update and create new files on this folder on both pc and macbook.

 

Issue - onedrive app only sees c drive documents/pictures/desktop on backup/sync settings, and unless i move the folder into the onedrive folder on c drive it won't back it up.  

 

Please could you advise best way to setup PC/Onedrive/Macbook so i can access the d drive files/folders on any machine? 

 

Secondly, this is a business 365 package - can i password protect/encrypt folders like with Personal Vault?

 

diagram attached which might explain - thank you in advance.
