outbound data?
inbound data?
Just what does this mean please standards terms are upload and download.
Can I assume that outbound is is a download; and inbound data is referring to as uploading?
I would appreciate an answer as I would like to know what I am getting in to before I sign up Thank you

inbound is data transfer within the amazon network, outbound is download and upload.
See amazon for detailed price.
You’ll pay for upload and download and storage, but not for internal transfer between servers inside amazon.
It’s still a good price, compared to any backup/NAS solution. As I’ve calculated with the data volume I have, I would go break-even on a NAS system after 10 years or so. And I don’t think I would have my NAS that long actually without any upgrades or buying a new system…
