# What is Delta Drive?

Delta Drive is a drive for your working files — the things you use day to day — on storage Storage Studio runs for you. You can add files and folders, open and edit them, download anything, share with the people you name, and delete what you don't want, just like any other folder.

The same files are reachable three ways: the Delta Drive window on your Mac, Finder (where the drive can appear like a disk), and any browser. Delta Drive is deliberately separate from **Delta Trust**, which holds your backups: a drive you can delete from is not a backup.
