Backup to Dropbox extremely slow

[rreed14]

Hello,

I am trying to backup about 600GB of video files from My Passport Ultra 1TB to Dropbox on my university computer (faster internet). It is going EXTREMELY slow (like 100MB a minute). I followed all of the directions found online for this type of procedure. It has been working for days and only 60GB has transferred.

Anything I can do?

Thanks,
Renae Reed

Welcome to the WD Community.

The transfer speed will depend on the upload speed of the network and the enviroment that the unit connected to. 

As a recommendation, test the unit on a different enviroment and confirm the upload speed that you are using.
