Onedrive Office365 Premium purchase of 6TB showing only 1TB on Account Why?

[edo101]

We purchased Office 365 Premium for Onedrive which should net us 6TB for the account. However our account only shows 1TB.


Can anyone help me make sense of this? Is there a way to get 6TB to be tied to one account? We don't need 6 accounts, we just want 1 account to have 6TB of space

I believe that this is only possible with OneDrive for Business, where the administrator can increase the default size assigned per user.

More info at this link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/onedrive/set-default-storage-space.
From the article:
"For most subscription plans, the default storage space for each user's OneDrive is 1 TB. Depending on your plan and the number of licensed users (see the OneDrive for Business service description for info), you can increase the storage up to 5 TB."
