AWS may also incur storage costs and data transfer costs. Should the single disk storage costs for the virtual computer exceed $5/month, CNF will also rebill these costs. Should the data transfer costs exceed $5/month, CNF will rebill these costs. We do not expect normal disk usage to exceed these monthly costs. The rebill thresholds for storage and network may be adjusted if necessary$5/month. Data transfer costs from AWS to Cornell run $0.02 / GB. There is no charge for data transfers from Cornell to AWS.
