Don't do it, as it is async, and as VMware does a lot of small disk operations, it will be VERY slow and laggy. The best way to do it is to rent some dedicated server, put VMware inside, and spawn machines via their nice tool, and then access them via RDP.

Or NAS. NAS would be the most convenient and would play the role of a rented server and an external hard drive all in one on your home network.
I use one of them to store my movie collection on and they are really cool. A NAS device is essentially an external hard drive with an ethernet connection. Rather than connecting it to each computer you want to use it on, you connect it to your router and access from anywhere on your network. As long as you have a gigabit router the data transfer speeds are comparable to USB 3.0.
NAS would be much more viable than remote storage. The performance of your Google drive is bottle necked by the speed of your internet connection, while NAS would not be.

Sounds interesting. But what if you are traveling and not home? How would it sync
