Why transfer MEGA files to Google Drive?

Nowadays, transferring files between cloud storage services have become a very common user demand. More and more people like to store their documents, pictures, videos, etc. in cloud services because they provide mobile applications. This method not only protects their data from local accidental threats but also allows them to access backup data anytime and anywhere. Both Google Drive and MEGA are popular free cloud storage services, so MEGA vs Google Drive, which is better?

MEGA vs. Google Drive

MEGA: MEGA provides a secure end-to-end encrypted cloud storage service. They provide 15 GB of free storage space for each account, as well as a 35 GB free trial version. MEGA provides applications suitable for all operating systems and web-based systems, but the file-sharing function is not perfect.

Google Drive: Google Drive is the most widely used file cloud storage and sync service, providing 15GB of storage space for each account for free. Not only is it highly integrated with Google services, it can help you easily share files with others, and its mobile application is also popular because of its ease of use, but Google Drive lacks a fully-functional desktop application.

Both Google Drive and MEGA have their own advantages and disadvantages, so many people may use them together and save different files. You may encounter situations where you need to transfer files from MEGA to Google Drive. We will introduce 2 simple methods to help you transfer from MEGA to Google Drive.
