Previously, Gmail offered 10GB of storage while Drive and Google+ only got 5GB. By combining these three services, users will have a unified place to store and access all their files.

The $2.49\/month plan for 25GB is gone so the cheapest paid plan will be $4.99 per month for 100GB. There are plenty more storage plans if you need more than 100GB, as Google offers up to 16TB of storage.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-41233\" title=\"google storage check\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2013\/05\/screenshots_0000_consumer-1024x842.png\" alt=\"google storage check\" width=\"600\" height=\"493\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2013\/05\/screenshots_0000_consumer-1024x842.png 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2013\/05\/screenshots_0000_consumer-300x246.png 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2013\/05\/screenshots_0000_consumer.png 1188w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The combined storage will be rolling out over the next couple of weeks so be patient.
