OneDrive for Business storage to be increased to 1TB per user for O365 tenants

[JSchlackman]

Spotted this the other day (Thinking outside the box), and it has now been confirmed it does apply to education (A) plans. In short, everyone on Office 365 for Business will soon be upgraded to a default storage size of 1TB per user.

 

Despite the wording in the announcement, it isn't immediate but will be rolled out soon, and it does apply internationally:

 

The 1TB increase will be rolling out over the next few months and is not only US. You would not see an immediate change from what you see showing now, which is the previous default of 25GB.

 

Unfortunately there's no immediate change on the 5,000 items limit per SharePoint library, so your 1TB can only be made up of just under 5,000 files, but hopefully that will be addressed in time.
