Note
You must assign at least one license to a user before you can increase the default OneDrive storage space.
When you need cloud storage for individual users beyond the initial 5 TB, admins can open a case with Microsoft technical support to request it. Additional cloud storage will be granted as follows:
When a user has filled their 5 TB of OneDrive storage to at least 90% capacity, Microsoft will increase your default storage space in OneDrive to up to 25 TB per user (admins may set a lower per user limit if they want to).
For any user that reaches at least 90% capacity of their 25 TB of OneDrive storage, additional cloud storage will be provided as 25 TB SharePoint team sites to individual users. Contact Microsoft technical support for information and assistance.
To see the storage space and usage for an individual user, go to Manage storage in the OneDrive sync app. To see how much storage users across the organization are using, go to the OneDrive usage report in the Microsoft 365 admin center.
Supported uses
OneDrive storage is provisioned on a per user basis and is designed to serve the needs of individual users.
Storage of data other than an individual user's work files, including system back-ups and departmental and organizational level data, is not supported, nor is the assignment of a per user license to a bot, department, or other non-human entity. SharePoint is the best solution for more advanced content management and collaboration, including storing and managing files, communications, and intranet sites across a team or organization.
OneDrive limits
To learn about file and sync limits, see SharePoint limits and Invalid file names and file types.
For plans that include unlimited cloud storage for individual users, note that limits may apply on non-storage features.
