Genetic drift is considered a form of evolution. If a single population is split into two isolated groups then genetic drift will result in increasing differences over time. Eventually they will become two different species, unable to interbreed even if the two groups are brought back together.

Is genetic drift of product of genetic change?

Genetic drift is a product of random sampling. Like all forms of sampling or selection, variation within the sample set is required. Thus for genetic drift to occur genetic change (mutation) is required. However, it would be an error to call genetic drift a product of genetic change.
