Does Pc3000 need yearly subscription to work?

Does Pc3000 need yearly subscription to work or is just for updates and support?
Just gathering info on what tool to buy, i was close to DFL because of their "pay as you go" option (tempting), but after contacting Ace and an offer for UDMA + SSD for €5000 made me rethink.
DFL for $4600 and +$200 for the only SSD supported so far (SM2258XT), so $4800.
I'm getting good results with HDDSuperClone + R-Studio, DMDE , ROM programmer, soldering, etc, so I'm just looking around, so from the competitors price I think pc3000 is the way to go, plus many more SSD supported.
Thanks.

The subscription is just for updates and support.

SSDs are moving away from SATA and toward NVMe.

After the TS is over you don't have access to updates or support, but you can buy TS again when you want and get another year for updates and support again.

once you buy new Pc3000 (1st time) it will come with Free support & Free updates for 1 year, then you have to pay for Technical Support if you dont wish to pay you can still use Pc3000 with all functions you wont get technical support or latest updates.

Pc3000 is the No.1 Tool in Data Recovery Good Luck..

I will say that the move to NVMe is so rapid in SSD world
