Your assumptions

Decimal units: 1 TB = 1,000 GB. All values are editable.

Copies are simplified full-copy equivalents. This model does not calculate RAID, erasure coding, incremental backups, compression or deduplication.

SCENARIO RESULTS

Projected logical data195.3 TB
Capacity with copies + reserve488.3 TB
Full projected dataset transfer62.0 hours

At 7.0 Gbps effective throughput

How the estimate works

Projected data = starting TB × (1 + growth / 100)years.

Capacity = projected data × copies / (1 − reserve / 100).

Transfer hours = projected TB × 8,000 / (link Gbps × utilization / 100 × 3,600).

Estimates assume a steady effective rate and a single full transfer. They exclude latency effects, contention and application constraints. Capacity is a planning allowance, not a hardware sizing recommendation.
