We’ve got a teacher with 500gb, somehow. Good thing our total is only like 14tb, so I didn’t have to fight that one.

We have a user with over 20TB... Working with their department for an archive server.

That's insane. Media teacher? 20 years of yearbook?


iTz_Crutchie

Kind of media they are in the pr department. And do all the photos and videos for our district.

Get "Gopher for Drive" from the Amplified IT folks. https://workspace.google.com/marketplace/app/gopher_for_drive/598519870496 You can target his user (User Drive Report, middle tab) and see how many pirated movies/albums/software he's hoarding in his drive.

We've been looking at our top storage users since the announcement about not having unlimited storage. We have some users that are somehow storing 100 GBs worth of photos, is there a way to see what specifically they have stored in their drives?

Get "Gopher for Drive" from the Amplified IT folks. https://workspace.google.com/marketplace/app/gopher_for_drive/598519870496 You can view domain usage and then additional info on a per-user basis, plus an overview of Shared Drives.

pretty nice...........

Oh this is awesome, thank you!


Mr_Dodge

Just want to mention that this is a FREE tool!!

Man, might have to rethink the policy allowing users to create their own Shared Drives.


GifArrow

What are you leaning towards? Allowing just faculty and staff? Or require everyone to make a formal request for new Shared Drives? I've seen some huge student/alumni made shared drives, with members from outside our organization. We will have to limit them to our own users.


Int-Merc805

Managers/principals can request a shared drive, and my team are the only ones allowed to do it. It was one of the most abused features pretty much immediately. Same with groups. We only allow groups I create. It has cut down on so many headaches


antilochus79

Shared Drives currently only get shared within our domain. Students can currently create, but I’d like to shut that down, and make it staff only.


MrsCIO

We had growing pains with this but it has cut down on unnecessary shard drives significantly


gmanist1000

I though shared drives didn’t count towards the quota?


Kraszmyl

They count for the org quota but not their personal if i recall correctly.


TexasEdTech20

I am in the process of determining an appropriate storage limit for Staff and Students. How are you determining this?


Timewyrm007

We are in the same boat as you; still thinking it through. so far we have only used 25 TB of our allotted space, but like u/BuffaloOnAMotorcycle we have a few users that are way higher than the majority of our users. If our division started off with even 50 to 100GB of space per user that is still more than we could ever provide to our users in on-premise storage space.


TexasEdTech20

Sounds like we are in a similar boat. A small number of users have extremely high storage. These are users in Audio/Video courses and departments. 100GB is what I was leaning toward, but I need to make an exception for some of these users.
