Find the OneDrive account with all the space and use it. But at some point you’ll be confused – where are your files, how do you share files, which account are you logged into at the OneDrive website? You’ll have the two cloud icons in the lower right, and two OneDrive entries in File Explorer. Technically you can connect to both OneDrive accounts. The easiest way to do that is track down your Office license – that’s the account with the OneDrive space. My suggestion is that you use only one OneDrive account, and that you choose the one that has enough space to hold all your files. If you are in a small or medium business, the line between your personal and business life is probably fuzzy. You want the one that says 1,024 Gb or more. The Account tab will show how much cloud storage space goes with that account. PRO TIP: if you are logged into OneDrive on your Windows computer, right-click the OneDrive icon and click on Settings. That’s probably not enough to back up your files without running into space limits. A free personal account without a subscription is given 5Gb of free space in OneDrive.Paid personal subscriptions – Microsoft 365 Family and Microsoft 365 Personal – include 1Tb of space in OneDrive.Virtually every business subscription – Microsoft 365 Business Standard and Microsoft 365 Business Premium, for example –includes 1Tb of space in OneDrive for Business.That’s why I want you to follow the steps in the previous article to figure out which account includes your Office license. The account that has a license for the Office programs also has 1Tb of space in OneDrive. If you’re in a small business with mail run by Office 365, you have access to two different places to store files online: OneDrive for Business connected to your business Microsoft account and OneDrive connected to a personal Microsoft account.
