The Ultimate Gdrive Guide

The Ultimate Gdrive Guide

Roshanconnor Yo yo

Hello everyone

So I was talking to my friend recently and we started discussing about gdrive

When I talked more I understood that he is really confused with all these tools out there

rclone,autorclone,folderclone,gclone,fclone..and every type of these clones out there are very confusing


So I realised that this is a common issue for a lot of people

Thats when I decided to write this...

So If you are someone who is confused about these...then this is the right guide for you

To clear your doubts..and also to choose the right tool appropriate for your need

So lets get started

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let me divide this into three parts

  1. Tools which can be used to manage your google drive
  2. Tools which can be used to copy between drive,Teamdrive etc
  3. Tools which can be used to stream contents from googledrive online

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tools which can be used to manage your google drive:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tools which can be used to copy between drive,Teamdrive etc

So..first things First

You should know that there is daily limit by google - That is only 750GB can be copied to a Drive or a Teamdrive per day

>>>If you have only less than 750 GB to copy

  • Airexplorer (WINDOWS)
  • Mixplorer (ANDROID)
  • rclone (Both ANDROID & WINDOWS)

Guide for Mixplorer & Airexplorer - Read this

Guide for Rclone  - Read this


>>>Now if you have to copy more than 750 GB per day

I must add here that None of these Tool works if you have only Viewer access in the Teamdrive - You must be having manager access so that you can add service accounts direct or via google groups

->Gclone is the current Best one out of these three

Gclone: https://github.com/donwa/gclone

Folderclone: https://github.com/Spazzlo/folderclone

Autorclone: https://github.com/xyou365/AutoRclone

Tip: You can use the service accounts created using Autorclone or Folderclone anywhere (Service accounts are like Kids , Autorclone and Folderclone are like Fathers..it doesnt matter who the father is...after Service accounts are created..we can use it anywhere..for example I can use Service accounts created with Autorclone for running Folderclone )

Tools which can be used to stream contents from Drive online
