I was about to ask where you're seeing such cheap hard drives, but then I checked diskprices.com and saw that yes, there are indeed some drives for <$10/TB (current lowest price is $8.332/TB, and there are only 10 drives that are <$10/TB; I'm only looking at new drives).

I mean, I think my point is still valid for a $20/TB drive. It's a one-time cost, not monthly, and you're unlikely to exceed 1TB with Google Drive data.
