Because OneDrive provides access to files on many kinds of devices, it restricts the use of certain characters, file names, and folder names. In addition, certain features are available only in the Windows operating system. For a full list of these and other limitations of OneDrive, see [Restrictions and limitations when you sync files and folders](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3125202/restrictions-and-limitations-when-you-sync-files-and-folders).

Splitting large drives that serve several scenarios into multiple smaller, more focused drives may help here.|
|**Large drives and complex sharing**|Scan for any drives that have a very large amount of content, or many different unique sharing permissions – this is usually a sign that the drive should be broken down into smaller, more focused sites. <br><br>Specifically, any drive that has more than 50,000 documents shared with different users must be broken up. Use Box’s Folders and Files report and Shared Links report to identify such drives.|Identify sets of content within these drives that are conceptually similar (same project area, all shared with the same users, etc). Move these sets of content out and into new drives before starting migration.|
