=== "I'm totally new to this"
This option is aimed at you if you are starting totally from scratch and want to be walked through the whole setup.

IMPORTANT: GOOGLE HAS MADE CHANGES THAT RENDER THIS PROCESS LARGELY POINTLESS. IF YOU ARE A BRAND NEW GOOGLE USER, PROBABLY BEST TO PRETEND YOU NEVER SAW THIS.

IF YOU ARE MIGRATING FROM ANY OTHER RCLONE-BASED GOOGLE SETUP YOU SHOULD NOT DO THIS.

=== "Google Drive"

THIS IS ASSUMING YOU HAVE NO EXISTING MEDIA ON GOOGLE DRIVE OR ANYTHING ELSE.

IF YOU ARE STARTING FRESH LATER THAN JUNE 2023 YOU PROBABLY DON'T WANT TO GO THROUGH THIS. Changes to Google's "unlimited" offering have made this mostly needless and obsolete.

If you have a brand new Google Drive account and want to be walked through all the steps you need to perform, start [here](../../reference/rclone.md)

That's an eight-step process that is mostly copy-paste commands. When you have completed it, come back here.

That eight-step process will create seven shared drives, 300 service accounts, and will configure rclone for you.

IF THAT IS MORE THAN YOU HAD IN MIND, TAKE A LOOK AT THE "MINIMAL SETUP" TO THE RIGHT.

This should be enough capacity for quite a while for most users.

=== "Dropbox"

Create rclone remote[s] pointing at Dropbox as described [here](../../reference/guides/rclone-remote-dropbox.md)

=== "Minimal setup, please"
=== "Basic setup, please"
IF YOU ARE MIGRATING FROM ANY OTHER RCLONE-BASED SETUP THIS IS PROBABLY NOT WHAT YOU WANT.
