+2 - I feel like this is a (potentially intentional) blind spot for Dropbox and its ilk. I&#x27;m paying for 1 TB because I need that capacity, for my photo library, music, etc. - and I want to pay dropbox to make this work well with small fast SSDs. While there&#x27;s various tricks you can employ to get this working, they&#x27;re all a pain in one way or another.<p>&quot;A user who wants to back up and sync lots of media, and selectively offload it onto cloud storage to save local disk space&quot; is probably not such a rare animal. And if I&#x27;m not feeling charitable, I would guess that this isn&#x27;t explicitly supported because if it was, many more Dropbox users would start eating a lot more of their quota than they currently do.
