# Personal Drives

Each user in Google Workspace has a personal drive for their individual files. While this drive still belongs to the organization instead of the individual, it is designed for personal storage, so files and folders aren't shared by default.&#x20;

### Managing Personal Drives

Every user has a personal drive called My Drive when logged in. Files in that drive are considered to be owned by the user whose My Drive the file is in, meaning that they have full control over access regardless of who created the file, and can even revoke access from the person who added the file.

Organization admins can still access My Drives, but this is primarily for moving files, and they can't be accessed in the Admin console in the same way as Shared drives.&#x20;

Suspending users allows files shared with others to still be visible to other users, while deleting a user will delete the content within their My Drive.&#x20;
