Note:
- If you are using an HTML-5 browser, the file size limit for a single file is set by your administrator. Otherwise, the file size limit is 500 MB.
- Your administrator limits the amount of space that you have for storing files. Stored files include all versions of uploaded files. If needed, you can store up to 1 TB of files in your personal files, and more storage can be purchased for you. You can also delete old file versions to create more storage space.
- Files are scanned for viruses during upload. Uploaded files are also scanned periodically for viruses.
