This section lists the capacity points information table for each Everpure Cloud Dedicated SKU model. Each column heading shows the following:
Raw Capacity: The sum of the physical capacity provisioned. During the upgrade process, all the capacity points are denoted as raw, hence the importance of this table to map the raw to the desired usable capacity.
Usable Capacity: The amount of capacity that can be actually used to store data once Purity overhead has been taken into account. This value does not include the data reduction ratio for your workloads. Usable capacity can be found on the Everpure Cloud Dedicated GUI or CLI.
# of Virtual Drives: In AWS Everpure Cloud Dedicated, capacity upgrade means adding an additional virtual shelf of virtual drives. A virtual shelf contains 7 virtual drives. A virtual drive is an EC2 instance either i3 or i3en instance type.

Increasing the capacity of your Everpure Cloud Dedicated array will result in a higher AWS infrastructure bill, as increasing the number of Virtual Drive have an additional cost associated with them.
