| Free tier | Free: files deleted '1 days after last download', 1024 Kbytes/sec, 20 GB/day download volume. Registered: 20 days, 1024 Kbytes/sec, 30 GB/day, 300 GB storage. unit GB; metered on downloaded-bytes |
|---|---|
| Price | USD 30.54 per TiB at 30 days (USD 50 for 60 GB/day x 30 days = 1.64 TiB); USD 15.06 per TiB at 365 days (USD 300 for 60 GB/day x 365 days = 19.92 TiB) |
| Limits |
The free column's 'max upload file size 0.00001 Mb' is the vendor's own placeholder and should be read as 'no free upload', not as a number. The terms page states a different limit for registered and anonymous users: 300 kilobits per second, no more than 3 files per day and no more than 2 files per hour. |
| Binding | retention-clamped At 1 TiB/month the 60 GB/day premium allowance is fine; what fails first is the one-day free retention, which makes the free tier unusable for a multi-part archive even before speed. |
| Identity | email E-mail signup; card and crypto through the host checkout. |
| Egress | Premium raises the daily download volume to 60 GB and the speed to 50480 Kbytes/sec (48.1 MiB/s). Free and registered share the same 1024 Kbytes/sec cap. free allowance: 20 GB/day free, 30 GB/day registered, 60 GB/day premium price per tb: none published |
| Per-object cap | 'Max upload file size 68610 Mb' on premium (68.6 GB); 5120 Mb registered, 0.00001 Mb free as listed (68610000000 bytes) |
| Retention | free files deleted 1 day after the last download; registered 20 days; premium 60 days (1 days) |
| Interface | webdav WebDAV support is stated on the home page; the payment page is a plain comparison grid, and no API page was found. |
| Tooling | download accelerators supported; torrent leech and remote URL upload listed as premium features |
| Reliability | Sharing a premium account blocks access immediately, per the payment page warning. |
| Notes | Two vendor surfaces disagree on the free numbers by a factor of four, which is why the verdict does not rest on them: the premium price per TiB is USD 30, five times the best host compared. At 365 days, the vendor's own 60 GB/day is 21,900 GB = 19.92 TiB, so the annual plan costs USD 15.06 per TiB-month; a figure of USD 20.6 per TiB-month implies 300 / 20.6 = 14.6 TiB. The difference is 27%, and it moves DropGalaxy from worst-in-class on the annual plan to mid-table. |
| Evidence note | documented The vendor's payment page was read directly on 2026-11-03: the comparison table and the plan prices are the page's own text. The terms page gives different free-user limits (see limits_note). |
