Data storage refers to saving information in a place. Types of data storage include:

Shared drives allow you to store, search, and access files in a shared location for a team. Files in a shared drive belong to the whole team not just one person. It allows multiple people to work on the same document at the same time. It make it easy to share content and work from anywhere and on any device.
Members of a shared drive can share individual files and folders with non-members. This way you can share only what somebody needs without giving them access to everything in the shared drive.
