Where are Teams Files Really Stored?
When you upload a file from your computer to Teams, it goes into the "Files" tab of whatever channel you uploaded it to.
Every Team has a modern SharePoint site associated with it where channel documents are stored. Every channel in a Team gets its own document library in the Team's SharePoint site.
Files shared in a private or group chat are stored in your OneDrive for Business folder and are only shared with the people in that conversation.
