   The best way for using cloud storage

   It makes it easy to access cloud storage from PC or Mac. It is recommended for users of cloud storage such as Dropbox or Google Drive.

   👍 Pros:    Direct access to cloud storage from explorer|Fast browsing and uploading speed|File lock support for all files

   Fast and stable

   One of my favorite software for my daily tasks. I've used and tried other similar softwares but NetDrive is the most stable one.

   🏁 Competitors: ExpanDrive, Mountain Duck, RaiDrive, WebDrive

   👍 Pros:    Its file upload speed is great especially when there are large number of small files. if you have nas you need this.

   👎 Cons:    No support for client side encryption. i saw it on their support forum that they have this feature on their list but not yet.

• Ask HN: How best to sync a subset of my files with a friend?

  I would use syncthing, which is open source at https://syncthing.net/. After minimal setup, it just works(tm). You have a normal directory in your filesystem, that is synced to the other peers (which you set up in the "minimal setup"). I have been using it for years, and it works well. It has no problems crossing os'es (i.e. Windows -> linux, linux -> mac) For windows I usually recommend - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
