Why We Deprecated the T-Drive 

  • OneDrive and SharePoint are… 

    • Simple to access 

      • Tied to SU login 

      • Browser access is universal across devices 

      • Apps are available for enhanced functionality 

    • Very large, and easy to expand 

      • OneDrive = 1.0 TB per user 

      • Each SPO site = 2.0 TB default; easily expands to 5.0TB. 

      • Separate sites = separate quotas 

    • Easy to secure 

      • One SU Login 

      • Meets ITS Risk/Data Security requirements, including the Data Privacy Policy and Data Loss Prevention parameters 

  • Store data in fewer locations 

    • Easier to find what you’re looking for 

    • Less expensive to support 

    • Simpler to manage and maintain 

  • Cloud data storage > datacenter data storage 

    • Cloud storage is easy to access and just as secure as datacenter storage 

    • Datacenter storage is reliant on datacenter connectivity and accessibility, which in turn is reliant on VPN or VDI connectivity and availability. 

    • Data stored in Office 365 can be shared with other users inside and outside of SeattleU, and you have more control over how users interact with the shared data. 

    • The physical hardware used for storing documents and folders is more expensive than cloud-based storage.  In fact, cloud data storage is included in Microsoft 365.
