Disk Space
Learn more about what disk space really is in the web hosting business.
Every time you upload data on a web hosting server, it will need an amount of storage space on the hard disk drive dependent on its particular overall size. When you run a script-driven website which keeps its info in a database, it will need more disk space, the more people work with it. To give an example, in case you have a discussion forum, the greater number of opinions people write, the larger the database will get. E-mails, in particular ones using attachments, also take some disk space in the website hosting account. The disk space quota that you get with your cloud hosting supplier is the total amount of data you can have at any moment, and this contains website files, e-mail messages plus databases. Likewise, a computer has a hard disk drive and the programs installed on it plus all of the docs and music files that you generate or download require disk space, which can't exceed the full capacity of the hard disk drive.

Disk Space in Cloud Hosting
We've designed our
cloud plans with the concept that the hdd storage will not be a problem for your sites. While many hosting companies generate accounts using a single server, and in fact, the most popular Control Panels are intended to work solely on this kind of platform, we've used a different approach. We have clusters of servers that control every single aspect of the web hosting service, to ensure that your files will be stored on a single cluster, the emails on another one,your databases on a third one, etcetera. Using this cloud platform we achieve two things - the disk space is virtually inexhaustible for the reason that we're able attach as many servers and hard disks to our clusters as needed, and we improve the overall effectiveness of every machine since just a single kind of system processes will run on it. This tailor-made setup will enable you to extend your websites as you see fit without having to worry about not having enough disk storage.

Disk Space in VPS Servers
For all our
VPS web hosting plans, we provide you with plenty of disk storage for your content that suits the rest of the server characteristics, consequently a higher package comes with a greater allowance. You can use the storage space as you can see fit, because there are no particular allowances for the site files, emails or databases - they all share the total disk space of your server. Still, if you would like to have some restrictions, you can get your VPS plan with cPanel or DirectAdmin as the hosting Control Panel, and you will be able to generate website hosting accounts with a limited volume of hdd storage for every single domain that you host on your server. In case you require extra storage at some time, you will be able to easily boost your package with several clicks and the extra features will be added to your existing account, so that you won't need to migrate anything at all and all of your web sites will continue to be up and running.

dedicated web hosting plans feature numerous hard disks to suit the processing power that you'll get, which means that you will never need to be worried about not having enough disk storage. The HDDs can be employed in RAID, which means one drive can function as a mirror of another drive in order to make sure that all of your data will always be secured, or you can use it separately for even greater full storage capacity. Hundreds of gigabytes of disk space will be available all the time, therefore you can operate huge sites, upload big files and back up your individual archive. Considering that a dedicated server is definitely the most powerful kind of website hosting, you can upload/download files with ultra fast speeds. If necessary, we also provide you with the option to include more drives and make use of even further storage space for your content. We offer 3 hosting Control Panels with our dedicated servers - with Hepsia, all domains will share the full server space and will be managed from a single place, whereas with DirectAdmin and cPanel you will have the option to generate distinct web hosting accounts with pre-selected disk space quotas for every single domain hosted on your server.
