Deleted file shares in storage accounts with soft-delete enabled are billed based on the used storage capacity of the deleted share for the duration of the soft-delete period.

Migrating your SMB Azure file shares from a pay-as-you-go model to the provisioned v2 billing model involves the same process as migrating file shares from any other SMB source. See [Migrate to SMB Azure file shares](storage-files-migration-overview.md).

## Provisioned v1 model

210
The provisioned v1 method provides storage, IOPS, and throughput in a fixed ratio to each other, similar to how storage is purchased in an on-premises storage solution. When you create a new provisioned v1 file share, you specify how much storage your share needs, and IOPS and throughput are computed values. The provisioned v1 model for Azure Files is only available for SSD file shares.
