OneDrive at Syracuse University


OneDrive is a Microsoft cloud storage service that connects you to all your files. It lets you store and protect your files, share them with others, and access them from anywhere on all your devices. When you use OneDrive with an account provided by Syracuse University, it is good to note that it's sometimes called "OneDrive for work or school."

Additionally, it used to be known as "OneDrive for Business," so you may still see it called that in places throughout Answers.

Sharing

SU requires that sharing invitations be sent to an email address and requires that the invitee that is not using a @syr.edu email address be able to receive an access code at their email address to access any shared files.

Storage

SU currently limits the size of each user's OneDrive to 250GB in size and will be automatically increased to 500GB when the H: Drive is migrated.
