When will my 100TB backup storage run out if I grow at 5% monthly with 10 versions and 12 months retention?

Based on a 5% monthly growth rate, your storage capacity will be exhausted in 24 months.

How much extra storage do I need for month 36?

To satisfy requirements for month 36, you will need an additional 450TB of capacity.

Show me the monthly storage usage for the next 12 months.

Month 1: 105TB, Month 2: 110.25TB, Month 3: 115.76TB, Month 4: 121.55TB, Month 5: 127.63TB, Month 6: 134.01TB, Month 7: 140.71TB, Month 8: 147.75TB, Month 9: 155.13TS, Month 10: 162.89TB, Month 11: 171.03TB, Month 12: 179.58TB.

You can use the `calculate_exhaustion_date` tool to determine the specific month when your projected data volume will exceed your total capacity.
