SharePoint Online Storage Limits?

Greetings all. Rather than resurrect this old thread, I though I'd start a new one asking if the solution there still holds true. According to this page, the storage limit for my organization is ...

office 365

SharePoint

That's the limit(25TB) you can have stored in an individual group/site. Your total allocation still is sum of all the SharePoint online storage, which includes group storage. So in this case you would have to buy at a minimum .45 TB storage to fit the space requirement, but realistically you would need to add in addition your currently used storage + growth room.

Edit: I was using your previous storage example, didn't see the 10 license part. So you would need to buy .9 TB to cover the 2TB space requirement, but would want to buy in addition to that, whatever you currently usage is plus the growth potential :P

Hi Adam

Yes you are right. One Drive for Business storage is separate from SharePoint storage. You get 1TB of storage for One Drive that can be increased to 5TB per user.

Refer the below article for further details:

I have got a similar example when trying to calculate the total online storage limit for a client.

(1000 x E3) + ( 500 x E1)

So is the max allowed storage for SharePoint Online: 1500 x 1.01 TB ????? . Note addtional P1 or P2 plans purchased only the defaults per each enterprise license.

Whereas, OFDB woud be and addtional: 1500 x 1TB . This can be increased to 1500 x 5 TB as we have > 4 licensed users. Note, this didn't work in a dev tenant when I tried this earler.

Does this sound reasonable ?
