Are iCloud drive files downloaded to my Mac?
I just purchased a new MBP and I decided to get the RAM maxed but left the standard 128GB SSD drive alone. I was figuring I use iCloud Drive now for my document/image storage and iTunes Match for my music so I don't need all that HD space to start off. I'll add an external SSD a few months down the road.
When I moved all my documents from my old MBP to my iCloud Drive, when they started to appear on the NEW MBP's Finder view of iCloud drive I saw designations that files were not yet downloaded.. Does that mean all these files have downloaded onto my SSD? That seems counterintuitive to paying Apple for the extra space if it is still cluttering up my physical drive.
Can someone tell me what the truth is about where these files are being stored?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4), 16 GB RAM 128GB SSD
