Note that if you're storing something in Google Drive, it could vanish at any time. It doesn't matter if it's an accident or they think you "violated to ToS" or the file (or *all of them*) just somehow gets locked or whatever; the crucial thing is you can't access it anymore.

Have a backup somewhere else. Don't trust Google Drive.

Here are some examples:
