What are you basing that off of??

Google is 2TB for $10/month.

$8.33/month with the annual plan.

Is there a cheaper drive-only option?

[-] PrefersAwkward@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

The page you linked shows an annual plan of 100$ for 2 TB which means 8.33 per month.

Doh, I misread. I saw $20 and thought that was the monthly price, but that's actually for 2 months, before annual discount. Never mind.

So...yeah, who is Rakuten trying to compete with?
