“Your storage is full” - You must have found this message a number of times while uploading a file on your Google Drive, adding a new video or photo to Google Photos, or even keeping emails stored in your mailbox. Finally, Google is ending this hassle to manage storage for Google Workspace Individual accounts. In an attempt to support users to expand their businesses, communicate, and collaborate more effectively, Google is now increasing the current 15GB free storage to 1TB.
“Soon every Google Workspace Individual account will come with 1 TB of secure cloud storage. You don't have to lift a finger to get the upgraded storage: Every account will be automatically upgraded from their existing 15 GB of storage to 1 TB as we roll this out,” Google announced in a blog post. Google further agrees that while growing a business, it is obvious that users will need more docs, data, and digital assets to manage and store. Google Drive comes as a savior in such a situation. It allows users to store over 100 file types, including PDFs, CAD files, and images.
According to the company, “Google Workspace Individual is a paid offering that helps individual business owners grow, run, and protect their businesses. While these customers now have 1TB of storage, users with a standard Google Account will maintain 15GB of cloud storage at no cost (not 1TB)."
Moreover, users can easily collaborate on and edit Microsoft Office files without converting them. Not just that, Drive comes with built-in protections against malware, spam and ransomware so users don't have to worry about accidentally opening the door to malware just by opening a document.
How to get an upgrade from 15GB storage on Google to 1TB?
You don't need to do anything! Google will automatically upgrade the storage cloud data limit on every Google Workspace account from 15GB to 1TB. All you need to do is continue using the current service and you will have access to 1TB of storage to store files, documents, and other stuff without any extra charges.
Currently, Google offers three monthly plans of 100GB storage for Rs. 130 per month, 200GB storage for Rs. 210 per month, and Rs. 650 per month for 2TB storage plan.
While all Google Drive users receive 15 gigabytes of free storage across Gmail, Google Drive and Google Photos, GFiber residential customers on our 1 Gig or faster plans receive an additional one terabyte of storage space at no extra cost.
Each Google Account includes 15 GB of storage, which is shared across Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Photos. To add to your storage quota, you can purchase a Google One membership, where available. Occasionally, you may receive more storage from a special promotion or related purchase.
Individual users automatically receive the 15GB to 1TB upgrade. Simply relax and wait for it to arrive in your account, if you have one. Workspace Individual is still somewhat local, at least for the time being.
Six months ago, we announced a change to our High quality storage policy that allows us to keep pace with the growing demand for storage and build Google Photos for the future.
This happens because Gmail uses a distribute architecture to maintain storage, ensuring redundancy and backup to avoid atrocities like data loss. Thus,if you have emptied your trash bin but Gmail is still showing storage full, try signing out of your Gmail account and then sign in again to see if the issues resolves.
Occasionally, Google Drive may take some time to update the available storage after you delete large files. This delay is typically temporary, and the space should eventually be freed up.
Every Google Account comes with 15 GB of cloud storage at no charge, which is shared across Google Drive, Gmail, and Google Photos. When you upgrade to a paid Google One monthly subscription, your total storage increases to 100 GB or more, depending on the plan you choose.

Pricing for Google One starts at 100GB for $1.99, 200GB for $2.99, and 2TB for $9.99 per month. The existing Google Drive plans include 1TB for $9.99 -- those plans will be upgraded to 2TB at no extra cost.
I pay $99/year for 1TB of storage, most of it for photos. I'm 90% full, and the next tier is 2TB for $19.99 a month, or $240 a year (no yearly discount). But with Google 1 plans, I can get 2TB for the price I'm paying 1TB now: 9.99/mo or pre-pay 99.99 a year and save 17%.
