Google Docs vs Google Drive
Docs refers to the web-based editors to create, edit, and share Google documents, spreadsheets, presentations, drawings, and forms.
These online documents are tightly integrated with other Google Apps services and provide very powerful real-time collaboration features.
Drive is a single place to manage all your files, including Google Docs. Think of Google Drive as your personal stash of files and folders that follows you wherever you go - it lets you keep everything and share anything. Access files, folders, and Google Docs from a web browser or any device where you've installed your Google Drive.
You can use Google Drive to store all file types, including documents, presentations, music, photos, and videos.
