You can alleviate this by logging in to Google Drive and deleting files until you’re once again below the limit.
Perhaps more alarmingly, you also won’t be able to send or receive email in the associated Gmail account, or create or share new documents in Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and associated tools. Google Drive - If you have more than your limit for storage in Google Drive (and Google One), or you allow a temporary boost to expire, you can no longer upload new files via Google Drive or Google Photos. What happens when you stop paying for cloud storage? Other cloud storage companies may have offered similar deals for new purchases of computers and phones, but they all generally follow the same format. Google Drive offers an unusually roomy 15GB of free storage for all users, no purchases necessary. Previously, buyers of Pixel-branded Android phones could also get unlimited full-quality photo backups in Google Photos. Google Drive/Google One - Google typically offers a 100GB Google One (Google Drive) upgrade to anyone who purchases a new Chromebook or other Chrome OS-powered machine, ending after one year.
This free boost disappears if you stop paying, becoming inaccessible at the end of the monthly billing cycle. OneDrive also automatically gives an impressive one terabyte storage boost to any user who’s subscribed to Microsoft 365. OneDrive - Microsoft has given away temporary 100GB OneDrive storage boosts by logging in on Samsung-branded smartphones, and 200GB on some Surface hardware purchases. But while antivirus software is somewhat redundant on modern machines (built-in solutions like Windows Security are good enough for many people!), cloud storage is so useful and so in-demand that more users will be caught in a lurch if they use it for a period of time and aren’t ready to pay up. After a year or so, the freebies disappear unless you open up your wallet. This concept will be familiar to anyone who’s ever accepted a free trial for something like Norton Antivirus after booting up a new laptop for the first time. Unlike the soupçon of free storage given away with new accounts at places like OneDrive, Dropbox, or Google Drive, the larger freebies associated with a new laptop purchase have a time limit. But exercise a smidgen of caution before you load up a hundred gigs or so of cloud space with essential documents or precious memories. So it makes sense that “free” cloud storage is being given away with the purchase of new PCs.
Cloud storage is a big business, and it’s being made by sold of the same corporations that make components of the laptops being sold on store shelves all over the world.
