The disk space function shows the total capacity of data that you can have on a cloud hosting server at any given time. With a personal computer, for example, this would be the overall size of your hard disk drive or the overall size of all the hard drives in the event that your PC has more than one. The same way that your space on a PC is shared between installed computer programs, docs, music files and so on, the server disk space is ordinarily shared between website files, databases and email messages. Each file, folder and email uses some space on your server, therefore you should think about quite a few factors, not only the size of the files which you upload. For example, getting large e-mail attachments or using a script-driven site in which the user-generated information is kept in a database may also affect the hdd space you're using.

Disk Space in Cloud Hosting

In order to match the processing potential behind all our cloud website hosting packages, we've considered and included the best possible solution regarding the disk space - your hosting account will not be created using a single server, but using a cluster system. Therefore, what we've assembled is an entire cluster of servers which is dedicated to the file storage only, therefore you should never worry about not having enough hard drive space and having to migrate to an additional server since your present one can not accommodate more content. In case more space is necessary, we simply add extra machines to the cluster, so the hard drive space is virtually inexhaustible. Still, all of our cloud hosting plans are designed to be used for websites, not for an archive of big files. We have distinct machines for all the databases and the email messages.

Disk Space in Dedicated Servers

The minimum disk storage which you can get using our dedicated servers is 500 gigabytes. You'll have 2 separate hard disks, 250 gigabytes each, and it will be up to you the way in which you'll share out this storage space. You can have the disks in RAID, therefore all your content will be safe as one drive will be a real-time mirror of the second one, alternatively you'll be able to have them function individually, in order to use the full storage space potential that'll be accessible. The storage space of all of our dedicated web hosting plans is enough for everything - major online stores, data depository portal, private archive backup, and many more. We will never keep back your websites with regard to the hard disk storage they need. In case that they begin growing, we give you the possibility to add further drives to your existing server as required. When you obtain the server with cPanel for the hosting Control Panel, you will also be able to create a separate account for each hosted domain and set a disk storage quota for it. Using Hepsia all domain names will be hosted in a single and they'll share the whole server storage.
