Encrypt folder on the same un-encrypted Google Drive

Help and Support

hello,

  • you need to create a crypt remote on the same drive and rclone copy from the gdrive remote to the crypt remote.

  • you would hit the 750GB limit.

  • for each file, rclone will have to download it, a chunk at a time, encrypt a chunk and then copy that chunk to the crypt remote.
    you can run rclone on your local hardware and using local bandwidth.
    or
    you can get a free/cheap virtual machine from google cloud and run rclone on that.
    there is no charge for ingress/egress to/from gdrive.
