The disk space function displays the total amount of info that you are able to have on a web hosting server at one time. With a desktop computer, for instance, this is the overall size of your hard disk drive or the overall volume of all of the hard disks in case that the PC has more than a single one. The same way that the space on a home machine is shared between installed programs, documents, music etc, the server hard disk space is divided between website files, databases and e-mail messages. Each file, folder and email takes some space on your server, and that means you should take into account plenty of factors, not only the size of the files which you upload. To give an example, having large e-mail attachments or running a script-driven site in which the user-generated content is located in a database also affects the space you are using.

Disk Space in Web Hosting

We have designed our Linux web hosting with the concept that the hdd storage won't be a problem for your web sites. While many website hosting providers set up accounts on a single server, and in fact, the most common Control Panels are designed to work solely on this type of platform, we've taken a completely different strategy. We have groups of servers that control every part of the website hosting service, which means that your files are stored on a single cluster, your email on a different one,the databases on a third one, etc. On this cloud platform we achieve a few things - the hard disk space is virtually infinite because we can easily connect as many servers and hard disk drives to our clusters as needed, and we boost the efficiency of every single machine due to the fact that just a single kind of processes will run on it. This custom-built setup will help you develop your websites as you see fit without worrying about not having enough hdd space.

Disk Space in Semi-dedicated Servers

With all our semi-dedicated server plans, the hdd storage feature is not limited, so you're able to center on creating your web sites the way you like and not be worried about getting to a limit. Unlike numerous hosting suppliers that generate your accounts using one server, we take advantage of a custom-built cloud platform, which allows us to supply truly limitless hdd storage for each and every account. With just a single machine, there are only so many HDDs that can be used, not mentioning that most of the hosting Control Panels are not meant to work with several servers concurrently. Our platform, on the other hand, makes use of clusters of servers for the website emails, databases and files, and our in-house built Hepsia Control Panel was designed to work with it. We'll install as many servers to all of the clusters as required at any time, so the hard disk space is virtually unlimited.

Disk Space in VPS Servers

The disk storage that we supply with our VPS servers is different according to the plan that you pick at the time you sign up. Having a more powerful server, you will be able to effortlessly manage lots of sites, which means additional content, so the higher the VPS plan, the more hard drive space you'll have available. Shifting from one plan to another one will take just a few mouse-clicks and it does not involve any kind of service disruption. Your web site files, databases and emails will share the the whole amount of space the server has, but if you'd rather to use fixed quotas, you are able to choose cPanel or DirectAdmin for the hosting Control Panel during the ordering process. Either of the tools will allow you to set up website hosting accounts with restricted disk storage and when necessary, even to allocate space from one account to another. Using the third choice that you will find on the order page, the Hepsia Control Panel, all domain names will share the storage space.

Disk Space in Dedicated Servers

The lowest HDD space available with our dedicated servers is 500 gigabytes. You'll have two hard disk drives, 250 GB each, and it'll be up to you just how you will allot this storage. You can have the hard drives in RAID, so all of your data is always secured as one drive will be a real-time mirror of the other one, or perhaps you're able to have them work independently, in order to use the full storing capacity that will be accessible. The storage space of our Linux dedicated service is enough for everything - major virtual stores, file depository portal, individual archive copy, and so much more. We'll never keep back your sites with regard to the space they require. Once that they start increasing, we give you the possibility to add more hard disks to your existing server when needed. When you get the server with cPanel or DirectAdmin for the hosting Control Panel, you can also create a separate account for each and every hosted domain name and set a certain hard disk storage space quota for it. Using Hepsia all domain names will be hosted in one place and they'll share the entire server storage.
