I'm not sure how quota is calculated with different Basic accounts

I'm a person (not a business) with several Dropbox accounts, linked to different Gmail addresses, for different purposes. I've had Dropbox Plus for one specific project. But it's a big expense for me...

HI GenJones1964, if your account is over quota, your data would be subject to data deletion as per this article.

 

Separate accounts would have separate quotas and so wouldn't be affected in the same way, since according to the system they are different accounts entirely.

 

If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.
