How much payment do I have to add in order to run high volume instances?

Posted on September 11, 2015

I have 105$ on my account and I wanted to run high volume instance for a week to run some calculations. Problem is, I can’t because Digital Ocean tells me that I have to add more money to my account. How much money do I need to run those “stronger” and faster instances?
