Change the OneDrive for Business Default Storage Limit:

Changing the OneDrive for Business Default Storage Limit:


The default storage limit allotted to customers in OneDrive for Business relies upon in your Microsoft 365 subscription plan. E.g., If you've got got plans like “Office 365 Enterprise E3”, your users get 1 TB because the storage limit quota default is 1TB (More information) You can adjust the default OneDrive for Business storage limit from the OneDrive admin UI to much as 5TB. Here is a how to do that :

  1. Login as a global or SharePoint admin at https://YourTenant-admin.sharepoint.com/
  2. Click “Settings” from left navigation then “Storage Limit” then OneDrive app.
  3. Configure the default quota here. “Default storage (in GB)”, enter the default storage amount. Minimum storage is 1 GB & maximum is 5 TB, enter a number between 1 GB and 5120 (again depends on your subscription plan! Y

Most subscriptions come with a default 1 TB storage limit, and you can change default storage space via the OneDrive admin center as described above. If you decrease the storage limit and a user’s site is over the new limit, their OneDrive will become read-only automatically!

Set the default OneDrive for Business Storage Space

Increasing the Storage from 1 TB to 5 TB may be achieved with both the OneDrive Admin middle or thru PowerShell. open a PS shell and run “

Set-SPOTenant” PowerShell cmdlet with “OneDriveStorageQuota” parameter by giving the value in MB.

E.g. Set-SPOTenant -OneDriveStorageQuota <Size in MB>

Let’s increase the default storage size using PowerShell to 6144 GB (6 TB).
