SolutionHi @MichelChammas, as indicated by @iDepp, the promotion ended already, and will not be extended
With the end of the free storage promotions, one of the most common question in Connect is: How can I use my space in Google drive?
Of course, with a quick search you will find all the answer, but for an easy reference I will try to summarize in here the most common questions.
The biggest mistake that I did, when I got the free storage, was to save a copy of all my photos in Google Drive. Loading photos in Drive is using your storage space
With a correct setting, you will be able to store:
This is the storage I'm actually using:
Most of the space is used for documents that I have in Drive. As you can see from the details, I am not using space for photos
And I have more than 7450 files (photos and videos) stored
So, don't worry about space for photos in Google Maps. Make the correct setting, and you will have no problem in storage due to Google Maps or Youtube videos
For more information, here are the links to the help pages:
Hope this can help you
Happy Mapping

Can I store in Google Photos also raw files? Is there a MB limit for each photo? Thank you very much!

Ciao @Alecat
In Google foto le immagini vengono archiviate gratis alla risoluzione di 16 Mpx. Se imposti l'archiviazione High Quality, quelle di risoluzione maggiore vengono ridotte a 16 Mpx
Se invece vuoi archiviare a risoluzione originale, consumerai spazio. Puoi anche optare per una soluzione ibrida, utilizzando Google Foto in High Quality, e archiviare in Drive quello che vuoi conservare in formato originale.
Ricorda sempre che tutto quello che viene archiviato in Drive consuma spazio di memoria
