Update for: Martin Cleaver, masterfully. » Blog Archive » Amazon S3 + JungleDisk + IBID + Windows + …
SmartSyncPro requires a local drive (like f:) in order to do a incremental backup. It can JungleDrive provides mapping as an http: address (like http://localhost:2667/). They don’t sit nicely together.
Reading the JungleDisk forums, specifically http://forum.jungledisk.com/viewtopic.php?t=21 , there are several options. The one that looks most promising is to replace JungleDisk with S3Drive, which apparently does the same except maps the s3 disk space as a drive.
Nothing against JungleDisk, mind. It works fine for what it does. It just doesn’t do what I need.
Both s3drive and JungleDisk are free, and soon to be Open Source.
I’ll give it a whirl and report more. As this search returns nothing, I’ll assume noone else is talking about this combination. Besides this blog remembers more details than I do.

Hi,
So, did it work out for you? I just love SmartSync (2.x) and have it everywhere at home. But since it reads file headers/metadata, I wonder if it can access those from S3 or if it has to download the entire files to compare?
Your post is old, so I suppose by now you know what’s good and bad. Please send me a mail if you do.
