My upload speed is 250mbps, so 200gb should take around 2 hours, but it takes 20h. I've tried on multiple different wifi networks and on different times/days for the past week.
yesterday I tried dropbox app on macOS, and the 200gb directory uploaded in well under 2h.
This differential is abstruse and I have no idea what's going on nor where to get help on this. The tl;dr is I'd like to keep using Google Drive because it's what I'm familiar with, but it seems upload speeds greater than 25mbps are not possible.
I realise I could "just wait". But I much prefer to understand what's going on; if this is a google policy, or if I'm doing something wrong.
FWIW I'm drop and dragging files from macOS to the google drive web interface. (I don't believe google has an official drive app for macOS app as Dropbox has).
Any improvements to my understanding or help on this are greatly appreciated.
