It allows you to create access via keypair (no annoying logging in all the time), and even lets you mount your remote share on your local filesystem. Thankfully, Rclone makes direct access to Google Drive seamless. Google does provide "Google Drive Stream", but due to local caching, you still need local storage or you get "not enough space" errors. It's clumsy, slow, and as much as I love Google, the organization is confusing at best. Google Drive is nice, but let's be honest, no one wants to use their web interface as bulk storage. I'm currently using more than 40TB of space on my Google Drive, and only have a single user on my G Suite for Business. It might seem like an error Google would quickly fix, but it's been that way for years. Honestly, $60 a month for that much space is still insanely affordable — but if you open a Business G Suite account with a single user (so only $12/mo), you still get unlimited storage. Each user is $12/month, and so you'd have to pay $60/month to get unlimited storage. Officially, in order to get unlimited storage, you must get a Business G Suite with 5 users. There is one solution, however, that provides unlimited storage for a set monthly price. There are plenty of cloud-based storage solutions available, but they are all either very limited in storage space, or very expensive per GB. Plus, it mounts exactly like a local NAS! A Look at G Suite for Business The storage is unlimited for $12/month, and after 6 months or so, I can tell you it's a viable alternative to local storage. Rather than spend a few thousand dollars on a new NAS, however, I decided to host my files in the cloud. Thanks to ripping DVDs and Blurays, I was so very, very wrong. Granted, thanks to RAID6 I only (only!) have 36TB of usable space, but still, I assumed that would last me forever.
