    What can you store in Google Drive?
                      Google Drive can store all types of files such as photos, videos, PDFs, Microsoft Office files and
                      many more. You can also save email attachments sent to you through Gmail directly to the
                      Google Drive.

                      You do not have to move them manually. Google Drive also has the option to see the preview
                      of the attachment files without downloading them in the browser itself. You can easily preview
                      Microsoft documents, Adobe files, image files, audio files and video files before downloading.

                      How much can you store in Google Drive?
                      Google gives you 15 GB of free cloud storage just when you sign up for the first time. You can
                      upgrade it to more space if needed by paying some amount. This free space is shared between
                      your mails, photos, data on your drive, etc., on all your Google apps. You should never sync your

                      hard disk data to Google drive. That way you are unnecessarily keeping two copies of all your
                      files and using precious space. You should make sure that your Inbox and Google Drive are not
                      cluttered with unnecessary files. You will soon run out of the cloud space that you have free of cost.

                      How does it work?

                      On the top right side of the window, you will see a dotted square called Google apps         . This is
                      also known as the Google apps hub. Now, perform the following steps to use the Google Drive:

                                                                                                     1  Login to your Gmail
                                                                                                     account and click on
                                                                                                     Google apps icon.

                                                                                                     2  Click on the
                                                                                                     Google Drive icon.

                      The home page of a Google Drive appears on the screen. The Navigation pane has the following
                      options:
                         New: It helps to view, manage and upload files or folders from your computer and mobile

                        device to Google Drive.

                         Home: It navigates you to the home page of the Google Drive.
                         My Drive: It helps to view and manage files stored on your Google Drive.

                         Shared with me: It helps to view and manage files and folders that have been shared with you
                        by others.
