Per-option rates — edit any value to experiment
Estimate = (volume − free tier) × rate × months, where rate is $ per TB per month. Box and OneDrive rates apply above the included 1 TB allotment; AWS, GCP and Azure use their own calculators — open the link, then enter the monthly figure to include it here. For real pricing use the service’s official calculator or contact the service owner.
Rough demonstration only — figures are illustrative and not a quote.
