[Discuss] Using Grive to sync between linux, windows, and Google Drive



I am trying to determine the best way to keep all of my files (EXT,
fat32, NTFS, etc.) in sync with a single mirror where I can access
this mirror with any device or OS.  I initially thought of using rsync
to store the files to a NTFS partition since Linux can access NTFS
but, from what I read, this may not work well. I have recently been
considering syncing all of my devices with Google drive.  I realize
that this may make the documents less secure in the cloud, but there
should be ways to encrypt some of the files that are sensitive.

What is the best way to share documents between different operating
systems in a way that permits mirroring the drives?  Is anyone
familiar with Grive that permits Linux to sync with Google drive?  Is
there better ways to go.

Thank you for taking the time to respond.

Jay
