  Well, I think that's somewhat 'correct'. It's not a Network Drive
(note case), because that's a drive letter which is mapped to a
*Windows* (i.e. SMB) Network Share and Google Drive isn't a Network
Share. Also a Network Drive has no content on your local disk, but
Google Drive can/does have content on your local disk [1].

  So I think, 'Local Disk' is more 'correct' or less 'wrong' than
'Network Drive'.

[1] At least when the syncing option is set to 'Mirror files'. But also
for 'Streaming files', it says it "uses less hard drive space", less,
not no. FWIW, I use 'Mirror files'.
