Amazon Cloud Drive and files over 50GB

I´m currently using the built in service to sync with Amazon Cloud Drive. Apperantly there is a file limit of 50GB that I didn´t know of, therefore the sync got stuck for 3 days ending with an error...

    Hello F_L_,

     

    It may be best to post a suggestion at idea exchange board.

Is the 50Gb limit set by the ReadyNAS or by Amazon? I'm having issues syncing large files to cloud drive.

Hi, this is an Amazon limitation.

 

It´s not very well documented though.

    Figures! I just recommended a customer to start a subscription for backup replication purposes, since amazon offer unlimited storage. I think they're still on the free startup trial though. Really annoying. Google drive doesn't seem to have the 50GB limit, but they're at least twice as expensive and storage is limited.
