Google planning on becoming even more indispensable to computer users

Word on the street is that Google is planning on launching Gdrive, a hard drive stored on the internet which aims to replace the traditional hard drive. Users will be able to store the entire contents of their hard drive on any device with an internet connection.

Google currently already has an online data storage product connected to its email offering, Gmail, but this new service offers a much larger capacity, potentially powerful enough to run programmes.

However concerns over privacy have already been raised regarding just how secure such an operating system could be in terms of storing commercial and private data.
