As of last night sync, I got the below error:

Im using update one way, source to destination and no deletes.
Hence, if the filename is different, ie, lower case vs upper case, etc. then FFS should just consider the file is 'NEW'.

For Google Drive, there is a 750GB upload limit for users to upload their files. If using API calls, then there is a set of other quotas involved.
