What is Google Drive?

"Google Drive is a file storage and synchronization service that allows us to save and organize files created in other Google apps such as Docs, Sheets, and Slides. With Google Drive, we can collaborate with colleagues and students asynchronously and in real time. You can start creating and sharing content in Drive from the moment you sign in to your Google account!"
