      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?

                        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.
