Buy Dropbox storage

Last but not least, there is still the paid version : You can purchase 1 terabyte of storage space for € 9.99 a month or € 99 a year . More storage space is not possible for private customers. The subscription can be canceled at any time . Even after you cancel, you can still access all of your data - even if they exceed the free storage space. However, you cannot upload new files again until you have freed up enough space. Syncing between devices using the Dropbox app will also not work if too many files are uploaded to your free Dropbox account.
