Much like Chrome, Google offers the online installer for Google Drive too, which may be not the most convenient install method for systems with low bandwidth and slow internet connection.
Google Drive online installer
Usually, like all, you can download Google Drive from here (you need to sign into your Google account for this) which is of size 700+ KB. If you run Googledrive sync.exe, then Google Drive installer downloads required files and installs drive on your Computer.Google drive offline installer
Finding official offline installer link for Google Drive isn't that difficult.
It’s true that Google does offer offline installer for their cloud storage service, but keeps it hidden, though you can find it easily. Since Google Drive version number changes with the updates, it’s difficult to provide a permanent URL here on blog for Google Drive.
Official Google drive offline installer to say for e.g. for version number x is
http://dl.google.com/drive/x/gsync.msi
where you need to replace x with the current version number which is 1.20.8672.3137.
Then Google Drive standalone installer link becomes http://dl.google.com/drive/1.20.8672.3137/gsync.msi, but this link will change once Google drive program updates, then you need to replace above version number with the new one. This might be a bit tedious.
