After Much Of the mounting rumors, Google finally launched its Google Drive an official cloud based storage option. In February, a Google employee had hinted that the company would be releasing a Cloud based storage services in a "couple of weeks", which turned out to be an peevish estimate.

Diving into it Drive the first thing which we notice is that the interface is similar to that of Dropbox.You can download the Google Drive from here. Upon Installing, we can choose which all folders to synchronize and eureka, instant cloud storage. To send your files to Google Drive, simply copy the files into the designated folder. The default folder is "Google Drive" under your user directory, typically "C:Users/username/" for Windows Vista and Seven for Windows XP it will be "C:Documents and Settings/username/".

As rumored the sub domain drive.google.com appears to be home base for the service. Also as rumored storage upto 5GB would be free, beyond this Google Drive offers tiers all the way upto 16TB of storage space.The pricing structure is as follows :

25GB - $2.49/mo

100GB - $4.99/mo

200GB - $9.99/mo

400GB - $19.99/mo

1TB - $49.99/mo

2TB - $99.99/mo

4TB - $199.99/mo

8TB - $399.99/mo

16TB - $799.99/mo

The overwhelming feature of Google Drive is its integration with Google Docs. When a user enables Google Drive, their default Docs interface will be integrated to accommodate Google Drive.By default, Google Docs has traditionally shown a home screen which displays all of your most recently opened documents. Perhaps at the risk of confusing some Docs users, this screen has been replaced with a "My Drive" page -- a page which only shows labels and documents located at the "root" of your Google Docs.. err... Google Drive. As a result, labels now work much more like folders.

It is unclear what the future holds for third-party tools like Insync, however, they seem be functioning fine since Google Drive's release.

The service is currently compatible with Windows, Mac, Android and iOS is expected to come in a "couple of weeks".
