Will there be a 2 TB option for personal accounts?
I am running out of space with my 1TB drive. Is there an option to get 2TB? I know about Dropbox for business, with 5 Tb, but the price is just not compatible with my needs. It is too big a jump from...

Folks, I know this has probably been asked to death - but.
I need more space. 5TB is too much (and too expensive - I had it for a good 6 months).
1TB isn't enough any more. Are there any plans to come up with an "intermediate" option? Surely there must be a market for a 2TB Dropbox option?
Nowadays, with file sizes of ISO's, video files etc. getting bigger & bigger, 2TB isn't an unrealistic request, is it?

Considering that physical storage media seems to double itself each year, I really don't understand why Dropbox doesn't evolve the same way. 1TB hard drives are becoming cheaper and cheaper as every year goes by.
As 4K/8K media rolls its way onto the internet, there will be an inherent need for additional storage, that's just all there is to it. It's really not a question of IF it will happen, but when.
As a Pro user, I would love nothing more than to wake up and find an extra TB tacked onto my account at no extra cost. For as much as the Pro user pays, and the fact that their competitors are offering more space for the same price, this kind of treatment is way overdue.
They may have changed their pricing since, but IDrive has offered 2TB for less than 5$/month. At that rate we're paying double for half as much, just because Dropbox is brand name.
