I added one more step. I limited the bandwidth right away so that a minimum amount of data would land where I didn't want it. Once I set the directory properly, I removed the bandwidth throttling. Thanks again. Regards, PK

Thanks for your help!

"Please confirm or decline my understanding and clarify if need." The sync begins as soon as I link my machine to my account. 'htop' shows many dropbox threads. So, I know I am running some of the dropbox components. Maybe something else in the GUI is getting crushed by another conflict. Thanks for your help. I will stop…

That is: I don't *get* an icon.

I don't an icon to open that would let me access a "preferences" dialog. I was hoping to avoid a full sync and send my files to the correct hard drive on the first sync.

Crazy indeed. I run a recursive descent directory listing on my PC hard drive every night via crontab on linux and scheduler on windows. The listing is a big file, too big to manage on a 3x5 phone screen. But nearly everything about dropbox is better than google drive.

I like the question but not the answer. It means I need to maintain my own index.
