    If it's a shared folder, yes. You're not uploading to your client. You're uploading into a folder in your own account which happens to sync with your client. Since you're uploading to your own account, you need space in your account.

    If its a shared folder you also need a 90gb quota available. 

     

    Your clients space has NO impact upon YOUR space at all.
