Hello,
I am currently in the process of transferring all the data from our Google Drive to OneDrive for my company.
The total is 850GB and consists of folders and subfolders with all kinds of files (essentially the company archives for the past 10 years).
I haven't found a quick solution to make this transfer, so I resorted to the old-fashioned method of "downloading to PC" and then "uploading to OneDrive".
Before the question of my internet connection arises, I want to clarify that I have Bouygues fiber, and my download and upload speeds are normally more than sufficient.
I can post a speed test if you still think it might be the issue.
So my question is as follows: why is downloading data from Google Drive (using DriveFileStream on PC) so SLOW?
I am getting 70kb/s on downloads and maxing out at 3MB/s.
I haven't dared to do the math, but for all my folders, I think I'll be at it for a while.
Do you know how I can fix this issue? Or find a more appropriate solution for transferring cloud data?
Thank you in advance to anyone who can help me.
Best regards,
Configuration: Windows / Chrome 67.0.3396.99

Hello,
Start by checking your company's bandwidth before proceeding to download; if it is saturated, this may explain the slow download speed.

Hello, thank you for your response. I'm sorry I didn't see the notification. However, how can I check the bandwidth? Is it the results displayed by Speedtest, for instance?

The results displayed by speedtest are only valid at a specific point in time. You can check your bandwidth, for example, if you use a monitoring tool like Cacti. You can, it seems to me, also verify it by connecting to your router.
