What's the difference between choosing Google Drive power-up to the Attachments?

I have chosen the Calendar power-up before to manage my schedule. Since I am on a free account, I get to choose only one power-up per board. I was going to also choose Google Drive to attach files to cards.

But I noticed that I can attach files to each card from Google Drive without using its power-up. What's the difference between attaching files to cards to the Google Drive power-up?

Specifically attaching? With attaching files, there's not much of a difference, and both methods will let you attach files in essentially the same way.

The big difference is that using the Power-Up will let you see metadata about the files themselves right from Trello, rather than just showing the standard link to the file: https://help.trello.com/article/1032-using-the-google-drive-power-up
