Abstract: In some embodiments, a computer system may buffer, in a local storage buffer, data to be stored at the cloud and upload the data to the cloud storage from the local storage buffer. Upon receipt of an acknowledgement, from the cloud storage, that the data was successfully uploaded, the computer system may delete the data from the local storage buffer. The computer system may provide a ghost file representation of the uploaded data through the computer system, through which the data uploaded to the cloud storage may be accessed. In some embodiments, the computer system may access multiple cloud storage accounts, each corresponding to a file folder on the computer system, allowing the user to easily access different cloud storage accounts. The computer system may recover data that was deleted from either local persistent storage or the cloud storage.

Abstract: A storage drive and associated system and method for storing data locally at the storage drive and/or at cloud storage may buffer, in a local storage buffer, data to be stored at the cloud and upload the data to the cloud storage from the local storage buffer. Upon receipt of an acknowledgement, from the cloud storage, that the data was successfully uploaded, the storage drive may delete the data from the local storage buffer.
