Google Drive for Desktop -> Description via Google

With Google Drive for desktop, you and your company can quickly and easily access drive files on your computer. With Drive for Desktop, you can stream your drive files directly from the cloud to your Mac or PC. This creates more storage space and network bandwidth. Because drive files are stored in the cloud, changes made by you or your coworkers will be automatically reflected everywhere. This means the latest version of the file is always available. Drive files can also be made available for offline access. These cached files are synced to the cloud as soon as you are temporarily online, so the latest version is available on all your devices.
