    I have since answered my own question.  MS confirms that the Office 365 Business Standard has only 1TB of OneDrive storage.  SharePoint has 25TB of storage.

    I would delete this post from the forum, but I don’t know how!

     

    I have Office 365 Business Standard.  I am signing into OneDrive using my MS “work” account.  I’m getting a message that I’m using 97% of 1TB of storage.  I went into SharePoint Admin Center > Active Site > -my active site- and set the Default Storage Limit to 5120 GB.

    I’ve also gone into the SharePoint Admin Center > Settings > OneDrive-Storage Default Storage Limit to 5120gb and saved it, but every time I refresh the page (after the save) the limit has reverted back to 1TB.  grrr…

    I then went to my 365 “main” Admin page and selected my user account.  On the next Popup showing the properties about my account, I clicked on “OneDrive” and used the “Edit” Button under “Storage Used” to change the storage limit for this account to 5GB (the max it would let me).  I then navigated back to my user properties and saw that the storage limit did NOT change – it was still set to 1TB.

    I then logged out of the admin center, and re-logged in using an incognito window.  Went back to my user properties and saw the limit still set to 1TB.  I tried to edit them (again) and -now- it is saying the max storage allowed for this user is 1TB.

    I admit I’m confused now.   Any ideas?  I really need to increase the limit on my One Drive Business account to something greater than 1TB!

    Thanks,

    Jim
