Hey mabubilal, thanks for posting here today!
Your device's storage space along with your network's space plays an important role when it comes to uploading large content, and are both important factors.
The best way to upload large content would be through our desktop app.
Some things to keep in mind when using the app, would be to check its bandwidth limit and adjust it according to your needs.
As for the storage space, although it's necessary when uploading new content you might need to take a look at our selective sync feature, or this one about making content online-only, in order to save some hard drive space.
If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out!
