* Even though writes occur within 1 or more 8MiB chunks, the file will not be scheduled for upload until all chunks have been downloaded.
* If `repertory` is unmounted prior to an upload completing, it will be re-scheduled the next time the location is mounted.
* This mode will be forced if any request to write is performed.
* This mode supports read and write.
* This mode is read/write.
### Ring buffer
* In `ring_buffer` mode, a fixed-size file (default 1GiB) is allocated within the `buffer` directory.
* This mode will cache up to 1GiB of a file locally preventing the need to fully allocate a file for read operations.
* This mode is only chosen when the actual file size is greater than the ring-buffer size.
* This mode only supports read.
* This mode is read-only.
### Direct
* In `direct` mode, files are read directly from the corresponding provider without any local caching.
* An in-memory ring buffer is used to cache up to 5 8MiB chunks.
* This mode only supports read.
* This mode is read-only.
