Google Drive Inaccessible
-
West Coast US checking in, was able to download a PDF once then got a "Failed - server problem" error. Now it's saying none of my files exist.
Literally just last night I was thinking "man I should switch over to Google Drive from Dropbox, I already have the storage"... naaaah

This is only the second time I've seen a complete outage like this.

Maybe they are preparing for the rash of people to leave LastPass, lol.
-
Now that I looked closer, I can't download anything either... not even pdf or word files.

That's fair, it's all too easy to hate on a service while it's down. I'm mostly frustrated because I use my Drive as offsite storage for site backups. I suppose this is my wake-up call to send them to multiple cloud storage providers!

Site backups on Google Drive? How much storage do you have there? Ha ha ha.

I mostly have Google Apps for Work for my side business because I'm willing to pay $5/mo for Gmail's interface... That comes with 30gb of Drive storage, and so far I've filled up about 5gb with about 2 months worth of WordPress backups. Average daily DB backup is >1mb, weekly full "bare metal restore" with all media, plugins, themes etc are ~375mb each.

...and in figuring all of that out, it appears Drive is back in action, at least for me. Anyone else having better luck now?
-
It is back up for me as well.

an aside to the Google drive issue,.. there was a window of time this afternoon I was unable to sign into my email. Possible that it was related.
