Adding EasyStorage
Each EasyStorage account can store up to 30 GB of content for free. This storage is shared between your pictures and files. If you’re approaching the limit or if you’ve run out of storage, you can purchase additional storage or reduce your storage usage.
If you have Google Apps Unlimited or Google Apps for Education with 5 or more users, you have unlimited storage and don’t need to manage your storage quota. However, if you have 4 or fewer users with these editions, each user has a storage limit of 1 TB, so reducing storage usage might be helpful in some situations.
Manage Your Storage
If an account reaches the storage limit, a user can no longer send or receive any new mail and may experience general account degradation. Specifically, the sender will receive a bounce stating “The email account that you tried to reach is over quota.” Note that Gmail won’t bounce emails until you’ve had sufficient time to rectify any quota issue.
See Your storage limit for instructions on deleting messages to reduce storage use and the Solutions section below for workarounds to a full mailbox.
The storage available in each account is tracked by an indicator found at the bottom of every Gmail page.
