Server: Drive client like Seadrive has one

Created on 5 Jun 2017  Â·  4Comments  Â·  Source: nextcloud/server

As a feature request for future, it would be nice to see a Drive client like Seadrive has one (cf. https://www.seafile.com/en/features/).
This client allows one to mount the user directory as a Windows drive including a drive letter. It would be nice to see such a client also in Nextcloud.

Webdav dont work in reliable way. So we now looking some other cloud storage system to migrate to it. Since some people want to mount it like a network drive (in mixed envirememt).

Seafile has fuse like client for its protocol. So it seems to me if nextcloud implement such a client it will be a good addition.

PS WebDav must die in flame.

Nextcloud provides a WebDAV interface and there is a plethora of Windows WebDAV clients out there (even Windows itself provides a native client), so there really is no need to reinvent the wheel.

what @simonspa says → closing

are you implying webdav is even similar to seadrive client?
you should read about what it does (also google for dropbox project infinite)

WEBDAV SUCKS.
