| Composes with | 5 GB x N Microsoft accounts. Accounts are free but each needs a verified identity and there is no documented no-verification bulk signup; 5 GB is also below the 'trivially repeatable' threshold in practice for 10 TiB (2,000 accounts for 10 TB). |

| Reliability | Stable, no data-loss history; the blocker is purely the 5 GB number. |
