From a UX perspective the first button shouldn’t read “0-9999 GB”, but “< 1 TB”.

Otherwise I don’t see a problem with a minimum of 500GB to keep things efficient.

On the other hand I believe there is a micro market waiting, paying 1-3 usd/month for 15GB.

You can already have something like this for free with Yandex Disk or Google Drive. rclone will let you mount the so called "cloud storage" locally and will encrypt everything you upload (be aware that encryption has to be configured separately as a remote on top of existing remote).

Well, 9999GB is closer to 10TB than to 1TB.

They meant <10TB, and were commenting on the fact that the range started with 0 when actually it starts at 500.
