12/12/2017 ACTUALIZACIÓN: Esta comparación se basó en ExpanDrive 5. ExpanDrive 6 se ha lanzado con algunos cambios importantes. Echa un vistazo a mi comentario! Estaré actualizando este artículo pronto para representar una comparación entre Odrive y ExpanDrive 6
Esa es la pregunta que estoy tratando de resolver, pero ¿con qué fin?
Bien, Odrive y ExpanDrive ambos proporcionan acceso unificado a sus proveedores en la nube como si fueran unidades locales en su computadora. Lo que esto significa es que puede eliminar la sincronización de archivos y la necesidad de almacenar copias locales de archivos.
As an example, a typical Dropbox setup would have your Dropbox folder on your computer where you store everything. If your local hard drive gets full then you need to look at what you can remove by selectively synchronising the files you need and not the ones you don’t. The downside of this is that when you do need some of those files you chose to stop synchronising you have to either re-sync them or download them from the web interface, neither of which is ideal. Odrive and ExpanDrive take this and say ok, how about we just synchronise the files we need as we need them and until we need them they live in the cloud, thus freeing up lots of local disk space. In addition to that, they enable access in the same way to multiple cloud storage providers such as Amazon Drive, Google Drive, Amazon S3, OneDrive, Box and more.
¿Cuál es mejor, sin embargo? No quiero desembolsar efectivo por algo que no uso a largo plazo, y en última instancia, me gustaría usarlo en algunas computadoras sin pagar extra.

As you may have read in my previous blog post on ExpanDrive 5, it had some great features, but some significant caveats. Now, ExpanDrive 6 is here, released almost 6 months ago (July 5, 2017) it’s had some time to release minor updates and bug fixes. So as a traveller looking to keep my local storage at a minimum while having everything backed up and readily available in the cloud, I’m excited to see what version 6 brings to the table. It comes with claims of being 500% faster and the addition of offline-sync mode. It also adds two new cloud platforms, BackBlaze B2 and Google Team Drive as well as a new user interface.
