About this tool
Estimate monthly AWS EBS cost across gp3, gp2, io1, io2, st1 and sc1 — storage, IOPS, throughput and snapshots.
This calculator estimates the monthly cost of Amazon EBS volumes by multiplying provisioned GB, IOPS and throughput by the published us-east-1 on-demand rates — for example gp3 at $0.08 per GB-month with the first 3,000 IOPS and 125 MB/s free, and io2 with tiered IOPS pricing. It is built for engineers and FinOps teams sizing EC2 storage who want a line-item breakdown of storage, IOPS, throughput and snapshot charges before they provision.

gp3, gp2, io1, io2, st1 and sc1 with the correct per-type rate structure.
gp3's 3,000 included IOPS and 125 MB/s throughput are deducted before charging.
IOPS above 32,000 and 64,000 automatically bill at the lower tiered rates.
In us-east-1, gp3 storage is $0.08 per GB-month, so a 100 GB volume costs $8.00 if you stay within the free 3,000 IOPS and 125 MB/s throughput. Extra IOPS cost $0.005 per provisioned IOPS-month and extra throughput $0.04 per MB/s-month.
Yes, gp3 base storage is 20% cheaper — $0.08 versus $0.10 per GB-month in us-east-1 — and it includes 3,000 IOPS regardless of size. gp2 only reaches 3,000 IOPS at 1,000 GB (3 IOPS per GB), so most gp2 volumes can move to gp3 at equal or better performance for less money.
io2 IOPS bill on a tiered schedule in us-east-1: $0.065 per IOPS-month up to 32,000 IOPS, $0.046 for 32,001 to 64,000, and $0.032 above 64,000. Storage is a flat $0.125 per GB-month on top.
Standard-tier EBS snapshots cost $0.05 per GB-month of stored data in us-east-1. Snapshots are incremental, so you pay for changed blocks rather than the full volume size each time; the archive tier is cheaper per GB but has a 90-day minimum and slower restores.
