Google Drive is an online file storage and file sharing service, developed by Mountain View tech giant Google. It is also used as an online productivity suite that can be accessed through a browser. Google Drive offers users 15 Gb of free storage via Google One. Google One also offers 100 gigabytes, 200 gigabytes, 2 terabytes, 10 terabytes, 20 terabytes, and 30 terabytes through optional paid plans.
Well, currently, Google drive is going through some issues. So, just in case you’re trying to get your head around why Google drive services are not working for you or throwing login problems, find solace in the fact that you are not alone, many others are facing the same issue.
A quick glimpse at the micro-blogging site Twitter conveys there are many others affected by the same issue. For a quick glance, here’s how some of the complains word the problem.
@scanbot The OCR feature doesn't seem to work anymore. I've bought it a long time ago and already noticed the last few times that there's no OCR on my scanned documents anymore. It gets sent right into my GDrive after being queued. When it was working it would OCR before sending.

Well; RAID / copying –> dropbox / gdrive > single-drive, but, for certain issues, like accidental deletion, you can quickly sync those errors. Dropbox can for a time recover this. Anyway; using a backup-tool gives you control / protects against this. TBH, wish more folks knew!
