    yes its a freebie..I am happy lot of people love it…..
    but struggling to understand why we need this online storage stuff?
    Just carrying a USB drive is that difficult?
    Why uploading all stuff to someones disk somewhere …..

      You gotta be kidding me. Google drive is infinitely more useful than a USB stick. The fact that it can synchronize to all your devices seamlessly, collaborate in others in real time and be used for sharing anything and everything over the internet makes a USB stick look a bit primitive. I hate dealing with USB sticks nowadays - Google Drive is so much simpler.

    Ozbargain needs to account for 4 figure upvotes! Barely fits in the button. This place is getting too popular.

      I can't even see the 4th digit. I can only see 103 then a squiggle where the plus and whatever number it is, is combined.

        I think I suggested a feature once where the number be truncated to something like 1k+ (or 1.2k for greater accuracy) if it goes over, but I guess it wasn't accepted.

    Argh hasn't been worth it. I can't access Gmail through 'Mail' on my macbook anymore…

      Use the web interface, the stock mail app isn't too great with Gmail anyway (you lose a lot of Gmail specific features and contacts don't sync for example).

    Thank you! First time I heard about this free gb , I always struggle with just 15 gb

  • Click_It on 10/02/2016 - 20:45

    Strange, I have 20GB after this upgrade. Most have 19GB or >22GB.

    Mine includes a "1GB Paid Bonus" but I certainly never paid for anything. Oh well, all good.
