Microsoft has updated its 365 Family plan, reducing shared storage from 6TB (1TB per member) to 2TB total, effective May 2, 2027, for existing subscribers. The $13/month price remains unchanged despite the significant storage cut.
The change applies to both Family and Premium plans, with AI and Co Pilot features still exclusive to the plan owner. Microsoft will notify users before implementation, and those needing more space can purchase additional storage packs ranging from 100GB to 6TB.
Existing members before October 8 will transition to shared storage upon renewal after May 2, 2027, though plan switches may accelerate this change. Storage management is now transparent, allowing owners to assign packs to specific members.
