Is there any hard limit on MySite Quota

Question

I have setup few quota profile (15 GB, 20 GB .... 100 GB). All of our mysites have it's own content databases. Someone raised a concern and said MySite can NOT be over 50 GB. Is there any truth to this beside good practice?

Answer 1

The only limits on a My Site are the limits imposed by SharePoint (and they aren't unique to the My Sites). There are no separate limits for My Sites specifically unless you set them.
