Have free acct w/ high bonus space. If I upgrade to family, will my files count towards bonus first?

I have lots of bonus space on a free account, and >2 TB of files. If I upgrade to a Dropbox Family account, will my space usage count towards the family quota first? My files will (obviously) not fit within the 2TB family quota. Thanks

    Hey stanleyyy, thanks for posting on our Community and happy Monday!
     

    When you upgrade to the Family plan, your account's quota, including any bonus space, will be shared with the other family members. 

     

    I hope this helps and please let me know if you have any other questions!
