Google Drive is great for storing files in the cloud, accessing them when needed, and collaborating with a team. However, the internet isn't always reliable and can cause issues when accessing files. In such cases, you need an offline solution, and Synology may have the best options. Synology has awesome NAS enclosures. Its accompanying software, Synology Drive, packs goodies similar to Google Drive while adding an extra layer of privacy.

Businesses and individuals can benefit from the perks Synology Drive brings. Here's everything you need to know about setting up Synology Drive as a Google Drive alternative.

Google sometimes deplatforms people as well. Regardless of one's politics, one can't be positive it won't happen to them should the winds change.

It doesn't even have to be about politics. You can accidentally trigger one of Google's many tripwires and suddenly lose all access.
