FAQs

Why use Microsoft OneDrive and not Dropbox, Google Drive or any other service?

OneDrive is part of the Microsoft 365 services that are provided by AUP to its community members, so it is supported by IT Services. It is also safer in matters of privacy issues.

How much storage space do I have on OneDrive?

As an AUP member, you have one terabyte worth of storage space (the equivalent of 200 hours of video content) that you may use. That is a lot of space!
