With the introduction of the Microsoft cloud service - the service of the Erasmus University Rotterdam named 24EUR7 – students were offered 25GB storage in SkyDrive. However, recently Microsoft has indicated that this storage will be reduced to 7GB.

On Saturday 25 February 2012, all students of the Erasmus University Rotterdam switched over to the 24EUR7 cloud service. Documents stored on the Student Volgende Storage (SVS, Student Following Storage) were not included in the migration. The students will have to move these documents to their 24EUR7 accounts themselves. Students have an improved storage space through 24EUR7. On 11 May 2012, the SVS will be discontinued. As a result, any documents remaining on SVS will have to be transferred to 24EUR7 before this date.
