Google "shared drive" vs "shared with me"

Viewed 1773

Can someone explain how Google's "shared drive" and "shared with me" directories differ?

One of my colleagues just granted me access to the team's files, but I noticed they don't fall under my usual "shared drive". Instead, I have to access everything through my "shared with me" directory. This is rather annoying because I find the "shared with me" directory is cluttered with a bunch of other stuff.

Shared drive usually means there are 2 owners to a file while shared with me means that the owner of the file has given you permissions to use their file
