# Can I copy my iCloud Drive files to Google Drive or Dropbox with Storage Studio?

Yes. Add Google Drive or Dropbox as a cloud account, then create a transfer with your iCloud Drive folder as the source — iCloud Drive isn't an account you add, it's a folder on your Mac you choose with the folder button.

1. Add the destination account in **Cloud Accounts**.
2. In **New Transfer**, choose your iCloud Drive folder (or a folder inside it) as the source.
3. Choose a folder in the destination account, pick **copy**, and start.

Files that are only in iCloud have to download to your Mac as they're read, which uses space while the transfer runs, so do big folders in parts if space is tight. Keep using copy until you've checked the result; delete from iCloud only afterwards.
