Starting sometime after August 16th, 2021 the Microsoft Teams storage location for Teams recordings will be OneDrive/SharePoint. Users can record their Teams meetings and group calls to capture audio, video, and screen sharing activity. There is also an option for recordings to have automatic transcription, so that users can play back meeting recordings with closed captions and review important discussion items in the transcript.
