Free tier	2.5 TB (2 TB cold + 500 GB hot) $79.99/yr; 7 TB (6+1) $239.99/yr; 12 TB (10 cold + 2 hot) $399.99/yr unit TB; metered on unstated
Price	$2.78/TB at 12 TB ($399.99/yr = $33.33/mo); $2.86/TB at 7 TB ($239.99/yr); $2.67/TB at 2.5 TB ($79.99/yr). Cold tier only.
Per-object cap	not stated
Retention	not stated
Egress	Not published as a fee; cold-tier retrieval is the practical cost and is not quantified on the pricing page
Identity	card card
Binding	none no constraint in the record binds at this scale; the record carries no limit of a kind the vocabulary names
Interface	s3, webdav, rclone Windows client, S3-ish 'Instant Vault' for the hot portion
Tooling	no rclone/WebDAV found for the cold tier
Composes with	poor — cold tier is restore-on-request, not a filesystem
