If you forked over $20 for a year of 10GB of storage in your Gmail account, you may be in for a pleasant surprise today. Now, instead of 10 gigs, you get 80.
“While storage costs have dropped naturally in the past few years, we’ve also been working hard to improve our infrastructure to reduce your costs even further,” Google said in an e-mail to users. “On Tuesday, November 10, we increased the size of each of our tiers to make storage even more affordable and accessible. For the same $20.00 per year, you’ll now get 80 GB, 8 times as much storage as before.”
Your plan will be automatically upgraded and your new quota will automatically show up in your account in the next 24 hours, Google said.
“We hope you’ll like the extra space,” Google added.
