What contributes to the total SharePoint Tenant Storage?

Is it just data within SharePoint sites that make up the total SharePoint storage found in the M365 Admin Center > Active sites?

 

Do individual user's mailbox/One Drive contribute to this?

 

Reading through https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/servicedescriptions/sharepoint-online-service-description/sharepoint-online-limits I understand that by having a SharePoint Plan 2 license you get 1TB of storage plus 10GB for every licenses purchased (we have SPP2 included in our O365E3 licenses. With 193 licenses that's 1930GB = 1.93TB to equal 2.93 TB total storage). We have 3.80TB of storage used which comes from that 2.93TB explained above plus having to add some EFS licenses - but where is the other ~1TB coming from?


What else contributes to cost? 


Thanks

    zachurrutia You can use this M365 admin Self-help diagnostics to get the list of SKUs:

    https://admin.microsoft.com/AdminPortal/?searchSolutions=Diag%3A+SharePoint+tenant+storage#/homepage
    It only gives you the SKU, not the subscription. You can download the list of SKUs here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/users/licensing-service-plan-reference

    SharePoint Online Add-On Storage SSL = SHAREPOINTSTORAGE
    SharePoint Online Enterprise USL = SHAREPOINTENTERPRISE
    SharePoint Online OneDrive Basic USL = ONEDRIVE_BASIC

    SharePoint Online Standard USL = SHAREPOINTSTANDARD
