Mac OS X
Any file on the iCloud drive is mirrored on your hard drive. It's not designed for an off drive storage system. It's for syncing files between Macs signed in with the same Apple ID.
What FixFifth is referring to is the iCloud Photo Library which is a different animal entirely but uses the same storage allotment as the iCloud Drive.
