You Can Now Buy Up to 16 Terabytes of Storage from Google

Yesterday we told you how Google Docs is inching closer to being the mythical "Gdrive." Today Google announced that users can now buy up to 16 terabytes of storage for $4,096.00 per year. The storage can be used with Gmail, Picasa Web Albums and Google Docs. Those that don't need quite that much can choose from cheaper options:

20 GB ($5.00 per year)
80 GB ($20.00 per year)
200 GB ($50.00 per year)
400 GB ($100.00 per year)
1 TB ($256.00 per year)
2 TB ($512.00 per year)
4 TB ($1,024.00 per year)
8 TB ($2,048.00 per year)
16 TB ($4,096.00 per year)
