Active Question — SharePoint storage move (2026-06)
The client wants to move ~6.5 TB from Seafile into Microsoft 365 SharePoint. A phone meeting is being scheduled (client had not responded as of 2026-06-15). Cost analysis, kept Microsoft-only at the client's request:
SharePoint pooled storage = 1 TB base + 10 GB/licensed user. At 3 seats only ~1.03 TB is included, so nearly all 6.5 TB is billable overage.
| Option | Rate | ~Monthly for 6.5 TB | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| SharePoint Online Extra File Storage | $0.20/GB/mo | live storage; ~5.47 TB billable after the pool. CSP-monthly +20% -> ~$1,345/mo | |
| Microsoft 365 Archive | ~$0.05/GB/mo | ~$333/mo + retrieval | cold/inactive sites only; not for live working data |
| Self-hosted SharePoint Server | storage -> disk via RBS | licensing + infra + labor | escapes the $0.20/GB tax but SharePoint Server + SQL + Windows + SA + heavy ops is disproportionate for 3 users (~$8-15K one-time + maintenance). Not recommended. |
For ACG's internal read (cheaper alternatives, not necessarily quoted MS-only): they already have
Seafile; Backblaze B2 wholesale (~$0.006/GB) is $40/mo for 6.5 TB at ACG cost, and a managed-archive
resell ($0.03/GB ≈ $200/mo) would be ~5-6x cheaper than Microsoft with margin.
Recommendation / call talking points
- Ask why SharePoint (specific feature like Office co-authoring / Teams, or just "we want it"?).
- A full live move is a
$1,100/mo new line item ($13.4K/yr) — roughly triples their current ACG monthly. Set that expectation before they commit. - Preferred path: SharePoint Online for the working subset + keep the 6.5 TB bulk in Seafile, linked — gets the SharePoint UX without the storage tax.
- If they only want files-with-web-access, Seafile already does it — no change needed.
- Don't self-host SharePoint Server for 3 seats.
Open Items
- Client has not responded to the meeting request (phone meeting pending).
- Scrub the M365 admin password from the Syncro customer note (now vaulted).
- Deliver the SharePoint cost picture on the call; steer toward the hybrid unless a hard requirement forces a full move.
