This is one file at a time. It’s designed more for very quick “Oops I need that photo” sort of stuff.
What you want to do is better served by NFS, SMB or SFTP.
Or Syncthing if they want to sync gb’s of files between computers.

When we are talking terabytes of data there are faster ways for the initial sync job.
I would just use rsync/sftp/robocopy or similar for that first copy for faster transfers, then setup Syncthing on those shares for delta syncs.

Yep, with ST I can trust the files will get there. For large folders I just occasionally check on them.
ugh.
Am I allowed to think it’s weird the entire open source community can’t compete with SMB?
SMB is a protocol that can be used with Samba software in Linux since many years, so there is no need to compete I figure. Depending on the use case, I like to use rsync for copying files across.
It does actually support several files, folders, or anything.
