  1. Ability in Box Drive to have documents physically stored on PC or external driver

    In Box Drive it would be good that the documents are physically on our PC in offline mode, not just a memory copy (metadata).

    There’s an ongoing private beta for external drive support on macOS. We’ll share more details as progress is made.

    For the other request: with Box Drive on Windows, you can mark files and folders for offline use, and that content will be downloaded to your device. Starting with Box Drive for Windows v4.27, even if you quit Box Drive, all downloaded content remains available on disk and can be opened and edited.
