Bug Description

On the dashboard, you are told how much space is used, and tells you that you get 5gb for free. It then also offers for you to buy more space. If you have 50gb but only use 30gb, you probably don't need to buy more space, but if you have 24.5gb used and 25gb of available space, then you may want to look at purchasing more. Currently, you must visit the 'My Account' page to find out how much free space you have.

To me it would make since to take the "Need more space?" section and change it to reflect something that shows how much total storage you have, which you can then compare with how much you have used to determine if you should buy more space.

Indeed. And the purchase page should tell you how much total you will have after you buy more, including the amount you currently have. It currently only shows you total of N x 20GB you are about to purchase, but not what your total would be after that purchase.
