Upgrade StorageBest way to manage multiple users?
Hi all
We have a lab subscription to the cloud to store all our Zotero references, and all our staff access Zotero on a server, wherein the local files are stored in their respective C:\User\ folder.
I was curious if someone could explain how best to manage duplicates here, in order to save disk space. As I understand if all 16 members of staff synced the cloud library )e.g. 10 GB) to their instance of Zotero, we could end up with 16x10 GB = 160 GB of files, 90% of which are redundant. Is this assumption correct? If so, is there a better way to manage this to reduce these duplications?
thank you
Mark

adamsmithThat's correct and setting file sync to "as needed" mostly avoids this
