Dear @LaQuanda,
Thank you for reaching out regarding your OneDrive subscription and storage options. Below are tailored solutions based on your current plan type:
- Checking Your Current Subscription
- Go to the Microsoft 365 admin center.
- If you’re using the Simplified view, select Subscriptions.
- If you’re using the Dashboard view, go to the Billing > Your products page.
- To see more details for a single subscription, select that subscription.
- Check for current storage in one drive:
- Login to your OneDrive account.
- Navigate on your left-hand side, the available storage will be shown at the end.
-
- Check for current storage in one drive:
a. Default Storage: Most business plans include 1 TB per user. Enterprise licenses (e.g., E3/E5) support up to 5 TB.
b. Contact Your IT Administrator: Only admins can increase storage. They can:
- Go to Microsoft 365 Admin Center
- Navigate to Users > Active Users
- Select your account → OneDrive tab → Edit Storage
- Set quota up to 5 TB (5,120 GB)
c. For work or school accounts (OneDrive for Business), increasing storage requires administrative action. By default, most business plans include 1 TB per user, and enterprise licenses (such as Microsoft 365 E3/E5) can support up to 5 TB. If more storage is needed:
- Your IT administrator must assign additional licenses such as SharePoint Plan 2 or OneDrive Plan 2.
- These licenses enable storage expansion beyond the default limits.
- The administrator can adjust your OneDrive quota via the Microsoft 365 Admin Center under Users > Active Users > OneDrive > Storage.
Please contact your IT administrator to request additional storage or license upgrades. Individual users cannot purchase or expand OneDrive storage on work/school accounts without admin involvement.
