1TB Site Collections: The New Standard for SharePoint Online
1TB Site Collections: The New Standard for SharePoint Online
SharePoint Online now holds 1TB site collections, allowing your teams to store more content in a single location. Now you can spend more time sharing your personal work content. 1TB will let you establish large team document centers that teams can use – and keep using over time – without needing to introduce unwarranted information architecture complexities.
All your site collections – private and public, managed from the SharePoint Online admin center – can now have up to 1TB of storage allocation. You simply assign the desired amount to the selected site collection. The same holds true for users’ OneDrive for Business that start with a default of 25GB/user allocation. Your SharePoint Online admin can now allocate more storage, up to 1TB, to users in the following increments: 50GB, 100GB, 250GB, 500GB, and 1024GB.
The new storage quota increases limits for OneDrive for Business. Manage allocations in the SharePoint Online admin center.
Infinite tenant storage scale
SharePoint Online has seen explosive growth: a 485 percent growth in user access and a 500 percent year over year growth in customer content storage, since April 2013. In the simplest terms, this means customers are leveraging Office 365 more than ever before, both in their OneDrive for Business usage and in collaboration and portal sites.
Office 365 and SharePoint Online have architected the storage design to enable infinite storage scale – for current storage needs and unlimited future potential. Users get a default 25GB of OneDrive for Business storage, + 50GB of email storage, + 5GB for each site mailbox you create, + your total available tenant storage, which for every Office 365 business customer starts at 10GB + 500MB times the number of users1. If you and your company have growing storage needs across your various work streams and content types, you’ll find Office 365 offers ample headroom–on day one. And if you need more storage, you can now purchase unlimited additional storage right from within your SharePoint Online admin center at a cost per gigabyte (GB) per month.
You can click the Buy Storage button from within the SharePoint Online admin center to buy additional storage.
