- Aug 03, 2016Just to be clear, Group files can hold up to 1 TB of data but it counts against your SPO tenant storage...

indeed and it's documented here: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/SharePoint-Online-software-boundaries-and-limits-8F34FF47-B749-408B-ABC0-B605E1F6D498?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US
Office 365 Groups file storage
Group files storage has the same storage and upload limits as a site collection storage limit above.

Funny timimg, I came across that article today! https://support.office.com/en-us/article/SharePoint-Online-software-boundaries-and-limits-8f34ff47-b749-408b-abc0-b605e1f6d498 very informative indeed. thank you.
But see this i where it get confusing: jcgonzalezmartin said "Just to be clear, Group files can hold up to 1 TB of data but it counts against your SPO tenant storage... "
Ok so, Does that mean that if my tenant has 2T and 1 group upload 1T there is only 1T left to be shared between other groups and site?
or ..
As most seems to suggest, each group get 1T. Then If 3 groups upload 1T i would effectively use 3T of storage? (despite my 2T tenant limit?)
I'm sorry for insisting, but I do need to be 100% sure of the storage mechanism for O365 groups as we are currently scoping network share migration to Office 365 group.
Obviously, I would like to believe the second option is the correct one :)
cfiessinger, SanthoshB1 thanks for the PS link, but for some reason, I cannot invok the -identiy parameter with the Get-sposite cmdlets
Eric Adler Thank you for sharing this hidden gem. I have used report for OnedDrive & Sp, but never noticed that dropdown.

Julien Gares Regarding storage, unfornately, option 1 is correct.
