For example, if you want to view the bills of a General-purpose NAS file system that you created in January 2023, you can filter the bills based on the conditions, as shown in the following figure.
Example: User A creates a Capacity NAS file system in the China (Beijing) region. The hourly usage of the file system is 1,000 GiB in January 2021. A storage plan of 500 GiB is attached to the file system and the user purchases two 100 GiB General-purpose NAS resource plans. The following billing details are displayed in the monthly bill:
Usage: (1,000 GiB - 500 GiB - 100 GiB - 100 GiB) × 31 × 24 = 223,200 GiB
Capacity of the resource plans: (100 GiB + 100 GiB) × 1,024 = 204,800 MiB
Official price: 223,200 GiB × USD 0.00008065 per GiB = USD 18
Total monthly fee: USD 18 + USD 22.85 + USD 4.57 + USD 4.57 = USD 49.99
In the preceding formula, USD 22.85 is the 1-month subscription fee for a Capacity storage plan of 500 GiB. USD 4.57 is the 1-month subscription fee for a General-purpose NAS resource plan of 100 GiB.
