I'm trying to help a manager locate various files and folders in an ex-employee's OneDrive, which contains around 3.1 terabytes of data. I know about Microsoft Purview, but it's not something the manager can manage. Is there a tool similar to Everything from Void Tools that can search this data directly in the cloud without needing to sync it? I currently have a PowerShell script running, but it's quite slow, and I'd really like to find a faster, more user-friendly solution with a graphical interface for the manager.

That amount of data is definitely on the high side for OneDrive! I’d recommend building a system with TrueNAS and using something like PaperlessNGX to manage it. It would take an initial setup time, but once it starts indexing, it should be able to search through both file names and contents pretty quickly. Just so you know, indexing can take a bit, but it’s usually efficient after that!
If the data is all in the cloud, I suggest checking out the search feature in portal.office.com. It combines various search functionalities which might help you find files faster than the PowerShell script you’re using. Give that a shot and see how it goes!
