File-level archive doesn’t change site storage usage or quota behavior. Archived files are accounted for in site storage the same way as active files. Archiving a file doesn’t reduce reported storage usage, change storage calculations, or affect quota enforcement. Because archived files continue to consume site storage, file-level archive can’t be used to reduce storage usage or store data beyond a site’s allocated quota.

However, the archived data is counted as **archived storage** instead of active SharePoint storage. Archiving data doesn’t remove it from your tenant’s total storage usage. Instead, the data is reclassified from active storage to archived storage.
