You will just need to experiment with saving/syncing of opens files and select the one that performs the best.
Watch out with OneDrive, which I tried. It has all kinds of limitations no one tells you about. For example, it doesn't do differential sync (not entirely sure this is the right term), meaning: if you make one small change in a 500MB TM (or a 1GB glossary file), OneDrive wil have to re-upload the entire file, every single time it changes. Which is obviously insane and stupid.
Dropbox does offer differential sync (as do several other providers); it only uploads the parts that have changed. [/quote]
Thank you Michael for the invaluable tips.

The reason for asking is that we get a larger cloud drive with GoogleDrive (15 GB, I think) than Dropbox (2 GB). [/quote]
Bala, thank you for pointing this out.
