Re: From "Available on this device" to "Always available on this device"
which of these results in the fastest access when you are online with internet access and logged in to one drive? I am having very very slow response to getting files. I guess asked in a different way what is the order of access ? i.e. if file is local (always available on this device) does the file get sourced directly from your hard drive? then if it changes is the sync to the cloud(onedrive) done asynchronously in the background both during access/changing, and at time of save. is the save done to hard drive first then synced in background to one drive, or saved to one drive then synced to hard drive. the reason I ask is that depending on the speed and reliablity of your internet connect it can make a difference. I cannot find any info on how the internals seem to work. since i converted I have noticed significantly slower access ( could be something else, but need to understand the details here).104KViews0likes0CommentsRe: From "Available on this device" to "Always available on this device"
so i have not seen anywhere anyone say what happens to files that flagged as "always available on this device". in regards to are they ever sync'd to the cloud? all kinds of stuff about what happens to physical file on harddrive when status is changed i.e deleted or restored(downloaded to hard drive). So is a file flagged as "always available on this device" automatically synced to onedrive in the cloud, or do you have to do that manually? If never synced how do you manually sync? I do not have issue with space, right now, but do notice considerable lag from cloud to download. so would like to have all files as "always available on this device". is it risky?107KViews0likes0Comments
