With Google’s introduction of support for any file type in their storage offering, the GDrive rumors continue to gain strength. In fact, many now refer to the new offering as GDrive, given the existing capabilities of Google Docs in combination with Google Storage. But how can you have a GDrive service that has no local drive? Gladinet Cloud Desktop answers that question by providing a mapped network drive interface to Google Storage. This enables you to actually put GDrive on G:\, so you can manage your files in Google Storage exactly as you would on a local hard drive. Google Storage access doesn’t get any simpler than that!

Google Storage: How it works
Google offers a way to purchase more storage space when you run out of free storage space in Gmail, Google Docs, Picasa Web Albums and Blogger (for photos).
Free storage
Free storage space is specific to each product. Picasa Web Albums offers 1 GB of storage for photos and videos only. Gmail provides 7+ GB. Docs gives you 1 GB for everything: all of your docs, spreadsheets, presentations, and uploaded files. Free storage from one product cannot be used by or transferred to another product.
Paid Storage – Just $.02 per GB!
When you run out of free storage for any product, you can purchase additional storage that is shared between products. This shared storage can be used for Picasa Web Albums uploads, Gmail messages, Docs content or a mix of all three – it will be used by any product that’s over its free storage quota on a first-come, first-served basis.
