When you create a classic file share using the provisioned v2 billing model, you specify how much storage, IOPS, and throughput your file share needs. The amount of each quantity that you provision determines your total bill. We provide a recommendation for how many IOPS and how much throughput you need based on the amount of provisioned storage you specify. Depending on your requirements, you might find that you require more or less IOPS or throughput than our recommendations, and can optionally override these recommendations with your own values as desired. To learn more, see [Understanding the provisioned v2 billing model](./understanding-billing.md#provisioned-v2-model).

4. Select the **Backup** tab. By default, [backup is enabled](../../backup/backup-azure-files.md) when you create a classic file share using the Azure portal. If you want to disable backup for the file share, uncheck the **Enable backup** checkbox. If you want backup enabled, you can either leave the defaults or create a new Recovery Services Vault in the same region and subscription as the storage account. To create a new backup policy, select **Create a new policy**.
When you create a classic file share using the provisioned v1 billing model, which only supports SSD file shares, you specify how much storage your share needs. IOPS and throughput capacity are then computed for you based on how much storage you provisioned. Depending on your individual file share requirements, you might find that you require more IOPS or throughput than our recommendations. In this case, you need to provision more storage to get the required IOPS or throughput.

Pay-as-you-go file shares (SMB only) have a property called **access tier**. All three access tiers are stored on the exact same HDD storage hardware. The main difference for these three access tiers is their data at-rest storage prices, which are lower in cooler tiers, and the transaction prices, which are higher in the cooler tiers. To learn more about the differences between tiers, see [differences in access tiers](./understanding-billing.md#differences-in-access-tiers).
