With Azure Files geo-redundancy for large file shares, you can enable geo-redundancy and large file shares for new and existing standard SMB file shares.
78+
In regions that are now generally available:
79+
- All standard SMB file shares (new and existing) support up to 100 TiB capacity and you can select any redundancy option supported in the region. Since all standard SMB file shares now support up to 100TiB capacity, the LargeFileSharesState property on storage accounts is no longer used and will be removed in the future.
80+
- If you have existing file shares, you can now increase the file share size up to 100TiB (share quotas are not automatically increased).
81+
- Performance limits (IOPS and throughput) for your file shares have automatically increased to the storage account limits.
