Are there plans to improve the command line? For example, there is no way to eject a drive without knowing which server it is connected to. I often connect to groups of servers (all servers in a WebLogic cluster, for example) so I have reserved drives K: through T: for this. If one or more of these drive letters are already in use, there is no way for me to automatically disconnect the existing hosts. Under ExpanDrive 1.8 I could just "net use X: /delete" without knowing the name of the host the X: drive was connected to.

Can I use ExpanDrive to use as iPhoto Library, with 200Gb there?

I made a quick file copying test to compare speeds and 1.8 was faster by a small margin (4:20 versus 4:50). That is not bad, but it is not improvement. I was copying 238 files in 246 folders (php code with svn repository data). I use NetBeans to browse files on remote drives and new version just feels slower, but I'll give it another try.

It's much faster in the general case or lost users. Can you email us with any specifics if you haven't already?

With ExpanDrive 2.x, You should be giving licence for 1.8. It is definitely the best version of ExpanDrive, that ever came out. I just downloaded 2.2 to test if is it still slow and it is ages from 1.8.

Be sure to reboot after upgrade - it's unfortunately required to fix this

2.2 still have the issue regarding "Fixed issue leading some editors to incorrectly detect new file changes ".

I'm using Windows 7 with a SFTP-share (Expandrive 2.2) for editing PHP-files in notepad++.
The server is a standard debian installation with: "OpenSSH_5.5p1 Debian-6+squeeze1, OpenSSL 0.9.8o 01 Jun 2010"

Thanks for update! I still hope that the Windows version will get some speed updates, because it's still the slowest FTP/SFTP program I've used

Re: ExpanDrive for Windows v2.0.9

Michael Pfister — Fri, 07 Oct 2011 03:09:47 -0000

This issue seems to be fixed in v 2.1.5 so I was finally able switching over to ExpanDrive 2.

Re: ExpanDrive for Windows v2.0.9

hemancuso — Fri, 16 Sep 2011 07:58:01 -0000

Not good - please email support [again] if you haven't already. We're unaware of any issue that could cause corruption.

While I would love switching over to v2 I had to downgrade to v1.8.4 again
It's not the speed that made me think something is completely broken in v2 but the fact it corrupts all my files when copying them over from an Unix Server (Ubuntu 10.04) to Win7 x64 using SFTP.

In v1.8.4 I never experienced such an issue while v2 is nothing but disappointing :(

Re: PSA: Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter works great with Dell 3007WFP

Ye Wang — Wed, 07 Sep 2011 12:40:03 -0000

No Jeff, you are WRONG abut this statement: "Dell makes a 30-inch display with a full-size DisplayPort, but (as far as I know) there is no adapter to connect it to a Mini DisplayPort."

DELL U3011 is the newer model with a full size DisplayPort and it works with MacBook Pros perfectly with a mini-DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable. $7 and no additional power required.

Just found a bug. If i use nickname for a drive using "/" it does not eject the drive nor open it in finder. Also, if the nickname has "ç" it does not connect.

Using: OSX Lion 10.7
Expandrive: 2.3.0 (144196c)

Can you email support@expandrive.com with that info?

Re: ExpanDrive for Windows v2.0.9

Benjamin Jurke — Wed, 03 Aug 2011 11:38:19 -0000

Just tried... and now I'm really getting a bit annoyed: TrueCrypt now report "The supplied user buffer is not valid for the requested operation."

What the....?!?!?!

Re: ExpanDrive for Windows v2.0.9

Benjamin Jurke — Wed, 03 Aug 2011 11:19:35 -0000
