Google has dramatically lowered pricing for Google Drive's monthly storage plans.

Apart from the free-of-charge 15GB plan that every user receives upon sign up, Google's cloud storage service will now offer 100GB for $1.99 (previously $4.99), 1TB for $9.99 (previously $49.99), and 10TB for $99.99. Google attributed the new pricing reductions to a "number of recent infrastructure improvements".

If you already pay for Google Drive storage, Google said you'll automatically move to a more affordable plan. You can always visit the Storage Purchase page on Google Drive to review your account, though. There's also a Help Center page that provides more details on storage options.
