| Free tier | None. It was 15 GB for early Galaxy buyers, cut to 5 GB for new accounts, then discontinued. Gallery Sync and Drive migrated to Microsoft OneDrive unit none; metered on none |
|---|---|
| Price | none stated |
| Per-object cap | Not applicable, the service closed |
| Retention | Two-phase shutdown: Gallery Sync and Drive migrated by 2021-09-30, then the remaining sync. Samsung matched the old quota on OneDrive for one year only, after which OneDrive's 5 GB applies |
| Egress | Not applicable |
| Identity | email a Samsung account, which now gives OneDrive and not Samsung storage |
| Limits |
|
| Binding | retention-clamped The storage product ended, so the retention clamp is total and there is no offer to test. |
| Interface | unknown |
| Tooling | none usable. Samsung's own support pages redirect the user to their personal OneDrive account |
| Composes with | Nothing to chain: it is now literally OneDrive on a 5 GB free tier. The 15 GB that older guides quote is a number that no longer exists |
| Reliability | Do not count this as a live 15 GB. The quota Samsung matched on OneDrive lasted one year and OneDrive's own 5 GB applied afterwards |
| Notes | Recorded under a slug that does not collide with the compute topic's samsung-cloud record, which covers Samsung SDS Cloud Platform and is a different product from the same company. The two seed records agree: one describes the shutdown and the other groups it with Amazon Drive and IONOS as free tiers abandoned within five years. |
