Thank you, I have installed ARM.. It it nice. So if I gather the above correctly, rate limiting 430 KB will insure that the totals of the TX and RX should not exceed 500GB in 2 weeks? Thank you all for your help again.

Accounting is done per direction, so setting AccountingMax to 500 GB will make it not exceed 1000 GB in total (RX+TX). Limiting BandwidthRate will additionally make sure that your relay is up at least two weeks, after that it will go into hibernation. Add all three lines to your torrc:
