Onedrive folder redirection

[Andybtsn]

Rather than OneDrive syncing with your data on your C: drive as has anyone just completely redirected their folders to OneDrive freeing up space on their local drive?

Firstly, is it possible and secondly what are the disadvantages other than slower speeds accessing data?

Thanks,

Doesn't OneDrive keep local copies on the PC anyway? As soon as I access a file on it, the PC downloads it first before actually opening it, and keeps a local copy unless you remove it.

Yes, seems to be the case. I am not sure what cloud storage options off that. I don't think there is a way of using Onedrive without storing data on your local drive and sync'ing the two.
