Notice the Monthly Recurring Price and the 1st Month Total are identical
This is because we have not ordered any additional hardware
If we were to upgrade our hard drive to 1 Terabyte
Then our pricing fields indicate a One Time price of $14 for the upgrade in hard drive
And a Monthly Recurring price of $54.76 for 36 months
So the 1st Month Total would be a combination of the One Time price plus the Monthly Recurring price
For an M-Seat you have the option to select different monitors
Backup Service, Virtual Machine, Return to Service, Hard Drive and Total Capacity of Memory
Remember to enter in Comments and Business Justification
Then when you are ready to submit your order
