Per hour on Windows, in each type's cheapest region. Typical spot: per pricing run of the last 7 days, the cheapest zone's spot price, averaged, as the finder shows it with that region selected. On-demand: the same region's price. Per vCPU-hour: the spot price, or without spot the on-demand price, per vCPU. Every region is under Prices by region.

Specs #
| Type | vCPU | Memory | Local storage | Network | EBS |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| x1.16xlarge | 64 | 976 GiB | 1920 GB SSD | 10 | 7 |
| x1.32xlarge | 128 | 1952 GiB | 2 × 1920 GB SSD | 25 | 14 |
Network and EBS: peak bandwidth in Gbit/s, with the bandwidth the type sustains when it is lower. Local storage: the instance store, in decimal GB as AWS sizes it.
