    Go to your Plan page and look for a section titled Available add-ons. Do you see something that looks like this?

Hi.

It seems after talking with the dropbox support team many times and looking online that I'm not the only one frustrated with the lack of add-on space within dropbox. The max you can go to as an individual is 3TB and you have to sign up for the teams (minimum 3 accounts) if you want more than 5TB of space.

 

Seems like dropbox are missing a trick here.

 

Any ideas if they are planning on introducing something like this soon?
