More information

The expiration date for the expanded subscription takes into account the number of days remaining and the capacity of the current subscription. More specifically, if you have 100 days remaining on the
original 1TB subscription, and you add a 2TB subscription license valid for one year (365 days), the following option is offered:

  • Capacity: 3TB (1TB+2TB)
  • Expiration: 277 days ((1TB*100) + (2TB*365))/3TB or (100+730)/3
