If you are buying into HexOS today, you should do so because you like the direction of the platform and understand that it is still maturing. The official site currently lists HexOS Lifetime at $199 per server during Early Access, with regular pricing after Early Access stated as $299 per server.

DIY builders who already keep separate backups and understand storage-risk testing.
