|---|---|
| Price | $3.33/TB/mo at 3 TB ($9.99). Lifetime 2 TB at $499 one-time = $1.04/TB/mo over 20 years, $2.08/TB/mo over 10 years, $4.16/TB/mo over 5 years. 20 TB is not offered — the ladder stops at 3 TB, so this cannot host the archive. |
| Per-object cap | not stated |
| Retention | not stated |
| Egress | Not metered on the plan page; 'Larger public transfers' is listed as a paid-tier feature without a published cap. |

Icedrive Lifetime Personal+ 2 TB Storage
caveatcardcardRretention-clamped
| Free tier | Lifetime Personal 500 GB $229 (list $344); Lifetime Personal+ 2 TB $499 (list $749). Growth is by 'stack' add-ons (1 TB / 5 TB) or by attaching a subscription. unit GB; metered on unstated |
|---|---|
| Price | One-time $249.50/TB at 2 TB ($499). Over 5 years: $4.16/TB/mo. Over 10 years: $2.08/TB/mo. Expensive relative to pCloud at the same capacity. |
| Per-object cap | not stated |
| Retention | Refund terms disagree between the lifetime page (30 days) and the provider (14 days). (30 days) |
| Egress | No egress fee published. Vendor explicitly frames lifetime as 'Made for casual use — ideal for everyday uploads and access. Power users and heavier workloads may be better suited to a flexible subscription plan', which is a soft fair-use brake rather than a number. |
| Identity | card card |
| Limits |
Stacks cannot be combined with each other arbitrarily — Icedrive community staff: 'Its not possible to stack lifetime plans on top of one another. Only by purchasing Stacks ... can you add more storage.' So the 2 TB entry point is a ceiling unless you buy 5 TB stacks. |
| Binding | retention-clamped a clock, not a quota: bytes leave whether or not the client is finished with them |
| Interface | webdav, rclone WebDAV + rclone generic; desktop/mobile apps; virtual drive on Windows |
| Tooling | WebDAV; no first-party rclone backend |
| Composes with | WebDAV -> local -> CDN |
| Reliability | No mass data-loss event documented. Pricing has churned violently across 2024-2026 (Black Friday $349 for 3 TB, then a $389 2 TB Core, now $499) which is a signal about unit economics, not integrity. Refund terms disagree between the lifetime page (30 days) and the provider (14 days). |

| Limits | 2 sync devices on lifetime, 14 days file versioning. Vendor explicitly says heavy sync/NAS workloads belong on subscriptions — i.e. the lifetime tier is throttled by device count, not bytes. |

| Reliability | Gibraltar-registered ICE PRIVACY LTD, 30-day guarantee on the lifetime page but 14 days — decide inside 14. Price discrepancy vs the 2026-10-17 audit ($699 for 2 TB) suggests the vendor page is running a deeper promo than third parties track. |
