It’s not just you: Google Drive is down for some
Having issues connecting to Google Drive today? Don’t fret — it’s not your internet, so don’t go on a customer service shout fest with your service provider. It’s actually an issue on Google’s end. While the company hasn’t detailed the issue, they have told us that Drive’s status is intermittent and may throw you a “500 error” or could cause latency issues.
It isn’t clear how many are affected. I have personally been able to connect to and use Google Drive just fine, though loading times definitely aren’t what they usually are. Some can’t access it completely, while others are seeing normal usage.
Google’s latest status update is that they’re still investigating the issue, but there’s no estimate on when a fix will arrive like a knight in shining armor. Hang in there, folks, and break out the good ol’ notepad if you need to jot some notes down in the meantime. We’ll be sure to upgrade this post once Google releases more details or fixes the issue.
