Cloud storage is convenient for multiple device access, but synchronization and backup are not the same. A removal can also be processed on other devices. Therefore, check recovery options and keep an independent copy for irreplaceable files.
Check partial settings before sending a link. A recipient can store downloaded files outside your storage. With a large first upload, connection and free space determine how quickly your collection becomes available.
Version and updates
For Proton Drive, check the version number of the release you are actually installing. The versions for Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, Web do not have to run the same.
Compare Proton Drive with alternatives
With cloud storage, you determine how much space, version history and collaboration you need. Also note which folders are automatically synchronized and whether files remain available locally. Synchronization can carry removals; therefore check the recovery options next to the storage space.

Our verdict
Proton Drive is interesting if you want to use files between devices within the Proton account. Test a shared folder and restore a file before moving a lot of data. Please note which files are really available locally. For important documents, keep an additional copy outside the synchronization so that a mistake does not affect your only copies.
