The disk space feature shows the overall capacity of data that you are able to have on a shared web hosting server at any given time. With a personal computer, for example, this would be the overall size of a single hdd or the full size of all the hard disk drives in the event that your computer has more than a single one. Exactly as the space on a home machine is shared between installed programs, documents, your music etcetera, the server hard disk space is normally divided between website files, databases and emails. Each file, folder or email message uses some space on your server, therefore you should consider a number of factors, not only the size of the files that you will upload. To give an example, having larger email attachments or running a script-driven internet site where the user-generated content is kept in a database also affects the hdd space you're using.

Disk Space in Shared Web Hosting

In order to suit the processing potential behind our cloud web hosting packages, we've taken into consideration and employed the best possible system for the disk space - your account is not created using a single server, but on a cluster system. As a result, what we've assembled is a large cluster of servers which is centered on the file storage only, so that you should never concern yourself with running out of hard disk space and having to move to another server since your current one is unable to accommodate more content. Any time more space is needed, all we need to do is add more machines to the cluster, so the storage space is practically unlimited. Needless to say, all our shared web hosting were made to be used for sites, not for a collection of large files. We also have different machines for all the databases and the e-mail messages.

Disk Space in Dedicated Servers

With the disk storage that we supply with our dedicated servers, we warrant that you'll be able to run any kind of site irrespective of its size. You will get at least 500 GB storage space, that you're able to employ as you see fit - even for private file storage. By default, you'll be given two hard disk drives, that can be used independent of each other, to use their full storage capacity, or they can be used in RAID so that one will be a copy the other one in real time to guarantee that you won't miss crucial information in the event of a hardware malfunction. You'll also be given the opportunity to include additional HDDs to increase the total HDD space for your use even further. This makes it possible for you to make a file or image storage portal without a problem if you would like. When using the cPanel hosting Control Panels that we provide, you'll be able to make an individual account for each and every domain that you host on the server and pre-define a quota for the disk space it'll be allowed to use. When you pick the third option, our custom Hepsia Control Panel, all of the domain names will be operated from a single and they'll share the entire server HDD storage space.
