About Google Drive

Google Drive is a cloud file storage system, and part of your UNC Asheville Google Workspace account. Store an unlimited amount of data, and access your files anywhere, from any device.

Accessing Google Drive

Access your Drive in your web browser at https://drive.google.com/drive.

Additionally, you can install Google Drive File Stream to access your Google Drive files directly from your Windows or macOS computer – just as if they were saved on your local disk drive.

You can also install the Drive mobile apps on your personal iOS/iPadOS or Android mobile device.
