Enable uploading over 15GB size files to OneDrive for Business

■Description(内容):
OneDrive for Business に 15 GB 以上のファイルもアップロードできるようにしてほしい
(背景)
・1ファイル15 GB以上ある大容量の動画ファイルを クラウド上にアップロードしたい。
・現在、クラウドへのアップロードの上限が 最大 15 GBとなっているが、動画データの特性上、圧縮を行っても 15 GB 未満へ容量を低減させることが難しい。
・1 カットで撮影された動画などの場合、分割し、小分けにしてアップロードすることが現実的ではない。
・他の編集ファイルや関連ファイルとのリンクやデータの整合性を保つため、アップロードのために動画データに手を加えることは好ましくない。

We would like to have the ability to upload over 15 GB size files to OneDrive for Business.

<Background>
-We would like to upload large video files over 15 GB to the cloud.
-Currently uploading limit to the cloud is set to 15 GB. However, it is hard to reduce each video file’s size less than 15 GB even though we compress those files.
-It might be difficult to split a 1-cut-filmed video into some small sized files to upload.
-In order to keep the links to other edited files/related files, and data integrity, we do not want to resize the video files just to upload them.

Thank you for your continued support.

OneDrive for Business の同期先に外付けハードディスクを指定したい

Enable specifying the external hard disks as the sync destination in OneDrive for Business

■Description(内容):
現在 OneDrive for Business で指定可能な同期先は PC 内蔵の ハードディスク ドライブのみとなり、外付けハードディスク ドライブおよび、NAS は同期先に指定できない。
外部のデバイスを同期先に指定できるよう、機能の実装をお願いいたします。
Currently in OneDrive for Business, the only sync destination we can specify is the PC-built in hard disk drive. We are not allowed to specify the external hard disks or NAS as the location to sync to.

In order to improve usability, we hope the feature will be implemented to allow us to specify the external devices as the location to sync to.

Thank you for your consideration.

グループ共有を行った場合でも [自分と共有] にアイテムを表示する機能の追加希望

Display items shared with a group in [Shared with Me]

■Description(内容):
グループで共有設定を行った場合には、[自分と共有] に対象のアイテムが表示されない動作を確認している。
[自分と共有] に表示させるために各ユーザー毎に共有設定を行うのは、手間と時間がかかり不便に感じます。
使いやすく、効率よく作業できるよう、グループ共有を行った場合でも [自分と共有] にアイテムを表示する機能の追加して欲しい。

I have confirmed the behavior that when an item was shared by a group, that item will not be show in [Shared with Me].
To make sure display that file in [Shared with Me], it will take time and effort because it requires us to share the file with each user.

For improvement of usability and efficiency of work, it will be nice if items could be displayed in [Shared with Me] even though the items are shared with groups.

Thank you for your consideration.

This feature is inaccessible for 365 Home users. It is only available for 365 Business users for reasons never explained. Please make it available for both.

The existence of this feature and its nonexistence within the OneDrive for a Home subscription is not stated during the purchase of the plan and is missing from the plan details. Whatsmore, Home users pay more for additional utilities (sway, skype, etc) with their 365 than the base business plan or business plan 1), but are still not afforded this feature. That leaves you with the option of paying more for what you don't need or paying less and getting fewer features. No happy medium. What is the engineering team between these two separate products thinking?

Why shouldn't a Home user want this feature? The ability to request files, photos, videos; generally, anything from anyone with a simple email and both consumers having a hassle-free, seamless upload (no making or logging into a Microsoft account) is an ideal customer experience. Freelancers, hobbyists, family units will utilize this. This "request a file" feature is an industry-standard for collaboratively uploading to cloud storage without having an account. You get this feature FREE - no subscription, no business vs. personal account - via your biggest cloud service competitors using only a personal/home account. What's stopping the access to this new feature between home and business is just a brand name and some convoluted market verticals.

"When two or more people are working on a document at the same time, they might make changes that conflict with each other. Conflicts can occur when one person works offline and then saves the document to the server. Conflicts can also occur when two people work on the same part of a document at exactly the same time. When edits conflict, the file would display a notification the next time that a user tries to save the document. The conflicts must be resolved before you can save the document to the cloud.
In OneDrive sync client (OneDrive.exe), when a lot of users have synced a library, the sync is happening on all these machines at various times. Now, when there are any changes made in a file which is inside a folder, the sync client will not only sync these files but check for changes in all other files in the folder. During this time the OneDrive is in 'processing state'. Since there are multiple users syncing the same library, there is a high probability that there are other users on whose machine the same folder or file is getting synced. Whenever sync is happening for a specific file, the file remains in locked state, irrespective of whether you have made changes on the file or not. The sync client just sees that a file is being synced and in order to prevent a conflict it puts the file in locked state. During the same time, if another user syncs the same folder and files under it (which is happening in this case), it will show the above error, asking the user to merge or create a new file. This is how the sync client works and it is to prevent two people syncing the same file with different changes."
--> the larger the ‘collaboration’ the larger the chance of synchronization issues. Definitely not the quality I would expect from a Microsoft product, expecially not one that is presented as the best in team collaboration.

Workaround --> work in the online environment…
Is work being performed on a root-cause fix?
Another workaround would be to put as few as possible document in a folder to prevent the risk of synchronization errors when two users are viewing a document in the same folder…

Could you add a feature request for an ‘open read-only’ button?
I often only want to read something in a document, and based on your explanation if that’s a word document and I open it, it will trigger a synchronization check on that document as well as on all the other documents in the folder leading to the issues as reported, when another user might also be viewing a document in that directory.

Feature request would be to either: ensure that documents cannot be authored at the same time in cloud and in oneDrive (prevent synchronization issue), or at least allow an 'read-only' button, so that only reading a document will not result in a 'lock'.
