It never slows down, Google never complains about how much data I've got in there, and it all works brilliantly. I personally have terabytes and terabytes of 4K Drone footage, all kinds of stuff stored inside my Google Drive. And it's not unlimited with a fair play policy, it's literally unlimited.

If you're on G Suite and you subscribe to the business plan, you get unlimited storage. It's certainly still important to not fill up your hard drive on your computer, but I really have the mentality and I try and instill this in our customers as much as possible, to just treat digital storage as unlimited. Based on those historical events, we still have the mentality in our minds that we need to keep out digital spaces clean. And once it was full, search would stop working, Outlook would start crashing, and you'd start having all those kinds of problems. Or I think about the Microsoft Outlook days, where if you got too many emails in your local data file, it would fill up. Stemming from the '90s when we got our first email address and we wanted to conserve space by deleting the spam emails in our inbox, because if we get too many emails it would fill up and we'd start getting bounce backs and stuff.

And Rebecca asks, “Is it best to put all my files in the cloud, in Google Drives web interface, or should I synchronize them down to my computer?” I have another question to answer for Rebecca.
