Do “Shared With Me” Files Use My Google Storage?
No. Google says files in Shared with me use the file owner's storage, not the recipient's. Copies or new files you create can use your own storage.
Can Gmail Send Files Larger Than 25 MB?
Yes, but personal Gmail does not send them as ordinary attachments. Google says files above the 25 MB attachment limit are automatically added as Google Drive links.
Why Does Google Drive Show Different Storage on Desktop and the Web?
Google Drive for desktop and Google Account storage measure different things, so the numbers often do not match.

Missing Google Drive edit access or local computer read/write access can prevent Drive for desktop from syncing a file.
Why Can’t I Upload Files to Google Drive?
Google Drive uploads can fail because the account is out of storage, the browser is unsupported or misconfigured, the file hits a size limit, or Drive is having a loading problem.
Why Is Google Drive Not Syncing?
