Base Tenant Storage Issues
First, it can be a bit confusing. Those limits posted are the limits of a site collection, not the storage you actually receive. So a site collection can store upto 25TB, but it doesn't mean you have 25TB of data.
You have 70 total licenses- 66 M365 Business
- 3 E3
- 1 E5
You get 1TB pfor the organization
You get 700Gb (10gb x 70 licenses)
For a total of roughly 1.70tb, or in your case it's estimating about 1.68tb. So you have used up the total amount of storage that was allocated to you, based on the # of users you have in your tenant.

That.is.insane. That's like saying, yes you have X but no, you REALLY don't have X.

What is the point of each team/site SHOWING that it has 25TB of storage IF the overall quota is 1TB+license-allocation??
We moved to Teams so that we could enjoy the benefits of integral communication features that aren't available in Dropbox, while being able to include the pertinent files library within the various teams to which those files relate. We did NOT want to lose our storage capacity equivalent.
kvaden357 It's not saying you have 'x'. Above the SC listing, it tells you have you have 'x' amount of available storage. Then it shows the limit of the Site Collection being 25TB. That's different than saying you have 25TB.
