Google Drive - Unable to Sync

This problem happened to me recently. I use my Google Drive like crazy and love it. 50,000 files and 13GB. Mostly portable apps and website backups (many files small size). Recently I decided to reorganize my Drive to allow for some of my data to be encrypted (using boxcryptor, but thats another story). So here I was moving around all sorts of files, combining other file systems into it, dragging and dropping documents before they were sync'd in the first place, etc. I did it this way to see what Google Drive is and isn't able to handle (dont worry I backed up before I did this).

My setup

This is not my main computer, its just one I threw together with best parts I could find laying around.

• CPU: Core 2 Quad q6600
• RAM: 3.5GB @ 667 DDR2
• HDD: WD Black SATA 2 7200 (about 90MB/s write tested)
• Network: 1000mbit direct to cable modems internal router
• WAN: 50mbits download, 20mbits upload
• Actual WAN: 36mbits down, 11mbits up
• OS: Win 7 x64
• Software: Google Drive PC app (all of this)

Steps I took

1. Deleted 49,948 (12.77GB) files from my Google Drive
   1. Status: Syncing 49,948 items
2. Copied 32,294 (4.9GB) back into my drive immediately
   1. Status: Unable to sync (in right click menu there is a ! at the top)
3. Before they were marked with the sync icon, I moved around 10,000 files into new directories on Google Drive
   1. Status: Syncing 10,000 items (really close to 10k, cant remember)
4. Created an encrypted section of my drive during this sync
   1. Status: Unable to sync
5. Put 13,375 items into my encrypted section of my drive using boxcryptor
   1. Status: Syncing 66 of 1188
6. Watched what happened
   1. Unable to sync (about 30 min passes)
   2. Syncing 1,299 of 6,737 (about 30 min passes)
   3. Unable to sync (15 min or so passes)
   4. Syncing 3,619 of 11,180 (20 min passes)
   5. Unable to sync (5 min or less passes)
   6. Syncing 7,551 of 43,710 (1 hour passed, still going though.)

Conclusion

Just wait it out
