control the copy speed
How can I control the copy speed while syncing daily work to prevent consuming the bandwidth and to give our employees the to work without any problems with the bandwidth? This option is available in tools like Goodsync, Gs Richcopy 360, and Duplicati and I will be happy if it is here too.

Re: control the copy speed
Check these settings:
"Go to the Copy/Delete > Network page and set the Limit the bandwidth usage to value (at the bottom on the page). What this does is specify how much of the network (in kilobytes) to use every second. By default a file is copied at maximum speed. Try setting it to 1000 (or lower or higher depending on how much CPU time you want to use and how long you want the file copy to take). For technical reasons, this setting is not available (and will be disabled/ignored) if using Compression*. It does not affect scan speed (only copy speed), but does also affect internal/local disk throughput when copying. However, it is not relevant for FTP or Cloud** protocols, which have their own dedicated settings at FTP > Advanced section and Cloud > Advanced page respectively."

Re: control the copy speed
Absolutely! Controlling copy speed during syncing to prevent bandwidth issues and ensure smooth workflows is crucial. While I don't have access to specific features in this context, there are tools available that offer bandwidth throttling options. By utilizing such tools, you can set limits on copy speed, allowing employees to work seamlessly without compromising the network. Prioritizing network stability and efficient resource allocation is key to ensuring a productive work environment!Lampoert wrote: ↑Mon Apr 03, 2023 8:15 amHow can I control the copy speed while syncing daily work to prevent consuming the bandwidth and to give our employees the to work without any problems with the bandwidth?

Re: control the copy speed
Hi jamssyyy
You are right, we can use additional tools to limit/control the speed but why this?? it will be better and more efficient if this option is built into the copy/sync tool! and this option is already available in the mentioned tools. mmullins_98 also makes it very clear in his comment
