Cloud Network Storaged!

I want to start multiple drive storages into my external drive as my cloud storage, can this be set up knowing that this external drive would need to be connected and on at all times, for backup and syncing operations?

Hey Clouds

Most modern hard drives will put themselves into 'sleep' if they are not used often to reduce the power consumption and increase the life of the drive.

Modern hard drives are designed to sleep after a certain period of inactivity. This is to conserve energy and is also considered by some to increase the useful life of the drive by reducing wear. In standby mode, the hard drive is in a state of low energy consumption and its platters have ceased to sleep

Depending on the settings of the operating system, the hard drive would automatically go to sleep after a period of inactivity, and thus increasing the lifespan of the drive.

After all, the hard drive inside your computer stays plugged in the whole time,

Hi,

You can go for the ioMoVo R integration hub to connect multiple external cloud storage to your device. It is offering Free 30 days trials..... a good way to check storage backup and automatic syncing of data. Most of the popular cloud storage like Google cloud, AWS, Azure, DropBox, OneDrive, etc can easily be connected by just clicking the button. I already have Google cloud and SharePoint but I have to keep business and marketing data separate to connect different teams. Lately, I started using the Free version and am impressed with the speed and myriad of features. Would surely recommend ioMoVo R for connecting multiple cloud storage.
