You can modify the following properties:
- Group Name: Change the name of the group to any name you choose. The name must be unique.
- Storage Quota: If you do not wish to allow the users in this group to have full access to the company storage, check the Enable Storage Quota box then enter the amount of storage in GB. Quotas can only be allocated in multiples of 1 GB. If users already have a storage quota, you can uncheck Enable Storage Quota and have the users access the entire company storage. For more information on storage quota, see Allocating storage quota for a group

TIP: If adding one user to multiple groups or removing one user from multiple groups, it may be easier to do so from the Edit User screen which can be reached via admin > user accounts > (select user to be edited) -> Groups (Manage).
To delete a group, click Delete Group underneath Tasks on the right side of the screen. When you delete a group, all data related to the group is deleted. Also, the policies and storage location of the users belonging to the deleted group may change.
