How it works

What this assumes.

The figures are estimates for planning, not a quote.

Storage at US list prices, in US$, checked October 2026. Your contract or region may differ.
Leaves out requests, retrieval, egress and minimum storage periods, which matter most in the colder tiers.
One copy, no redundancy beyond each tier’s default.
Leaves out the cost of running Compress.
