Fine print worth knowing
A few things in the fine print deserve attention before committing storage here: Objects deleted before day 30 are billed for the full 30 days anyway, so short-lived backup churn quietly costs double what it appears to; on top of that, a monthly floor of $5/mo invoice minimum applies, so tiny archives pay for capacity they never touch.
