Suggested answer: C, E

Explanation:

Move to Shared Drive:

Shared Drives in Google Workspace are designed to store files owned by the team or the organization rather than an individual user.

When files are moved to a Shared Drive, the ownership of those files is transferred to the domain, which means the storage quota for individual users is not affected.

To move files to a Shared Drive:

Navigate to Google Drive.

Select the files or folders to move.

Right-click and choose 'Move to' and select the appropriate Shared Drive.

Transfer Ownership:

You can transfer ownership of files from one user to another within the same domain.

This is helpful if a user is running out of storage quota, as the storage used by the file will count against the new owner's quota.

To transfer ownership:

Open the file in Google Drive.

Click on the Share button.

Add the new owner and change their role to 'Owner'.

The new owner must accept the ownership transfer.
