Disk Space
Learn what "disk space" refers to in the realm of web hosting and what is the disk space quota to meet your requirements.
Each time you upload a file on a web hosting server, it will need some space on the hard drive dependent on its particular overall size. When you have a script-driven internet site which saves its info in a database, it will require more disk space, the more people make use of it. To give an example, if you have a discussion forum, the greater number of comments people share, the larger the database gets. Email messages, especially ones using attachments, also take some space in the web hosting account. The HDD space quota you will get with each shared web hosting provider is the total amount of data you may have at any given moment, it features web site files, e-mails and databases. Likewise, a personal computer has a hard drive and the programs installed on it and all docs and / or music files that you generate or download require storage space, which can't exceed the total capacity of your hard drive.

Disk Space in Shared Web Hosting
To match the processing performance behind our cloud website hosting plans, we have taken into consideration and applied the most effective solution regarding the disk space - your hosting account is not created using just one server, but using a cluster system. Consequently, what we have assembled is a large cluster of servers that is dedicated to the file storing only, so that you should never worry about not having enough hard disk space and having to move to a new server because your present one simply cannot accommodate more data. When more space is necessary, we simply add extra machines to our cluster, so that the storage space is limitless. Of course, our
Linux shared web hosting plans were made to be employed for websites, not for a database of big files. We have different machines for the databases as well as the e-mails.

Disk Space in Semi-dedicated Servers
Considering that our
semi-dedicated server packages are really powerful, we've chosen not to limit the disk space aspect when we have designed them. Our understanding is that if you purchase a powerful plan, it is more than likely that you have a considerable amount of web data, that's why each and every semi-dedicated server plan gives you limitless disk space, which will help you direct your attention to enhancing your sites and not having to worry whether you will match an allowance. Your website hosting account will be set up on a cloud web hosting platform where the files, databases and emails have their individual groups of servers, so not only will the machines function more effectively given that only one type of system processes will work on them, but in addition you will not ever have to worry about the hdd storage since we'll install as many servers or hard disks to every cluster as needed.

Disk Space in VPS Servers
For all our
Linux VPS plans, we provide plenty of disk space for all of your content that suits all of the other server characteristics, thus a more expensive package comes with a higher allowance. You'll be able to use the space as you see fit, as there are no specific allowances for the site files, emails or databases - they all share the entire storage space on your server. Still, when you would like to have some restrictions, you are able to acquire your VPS package with cPanel or DirectAdmin as the hosting Control Panel, and then you'll be able to create web hosting accounts with a limited volume of hard disk space for each individual domain that you host on your server. If you'd like to have extra storage space at some point, you'll be able to easily boost your plan with several mouse-clicks and then the additional characteristics will be included with your existing account, so that you will not need to migrate anything and your web sites will continue to be up and running.

Disk Space in Dedicated Servers
With all the hard disk storage that we provide with our
Linux dedicated web hosting plans, we warrant that you'll be able to manage any type of web site irrespective of its volume. You will get at least 500 GB storage, that you're able to use as you see fit - even for personal file storage. By default, you'll get 2 separate HDDs, that can be employed separately, to use their overall storage space, or they can be connected in RAID so that one will mirror the second one in real time to make sure that you will not waste important information in case of a hardware breakdown. We also give you the option to include additional HDDs and upgrade the entire disk space for your use even further. This allows you to make a file or image storage portal without a problem if you'd like. Using the cPanel and DirectAdmin hosting Control Panels that we provide, you'll be able to make an individual account for each website that you host on your server and pre-define a quota for the storage space it will use. When you pick the 3rd solution, our tailor-made Hepsia Control Panel, all the domain names will be operated from a single and they will share the total server disk space.
