Copying Content between Drives
Shade currently does not support a feature to copy content between drives, but content can be copied through the ShadeFS mount.
Before you begin, your cache space must be double the size of the amount of footage you want to transfer. You can change this from your workspace settings. For example, if you want to move 50GB between your drives, you should have at least 100GB of cache space reserved.
Mount the drive with the source content
Mount the drive with the destination folder
Copy the folder directly from your file explorer
Monitor upload status from the Shade app
Copies greater than your cache space
If you need to copy more content than your cache space can support, consider doing a full folder download by right-clicking on the folder and downloading, and then complete a full folder uploading by dragging and dropping the folder into the new drive.
Copies greater than 5TB
If you need to copy more than 5TB of assets between drives, please contact our team here. We are happy to get your transfer completed quickly and safely from the backend.
