The term "disk space" is sometimes called "disk quota" or "data storage", however all these terms mean exactly the same thing - the volume of data that you can upload to a shared hosting account. The full size of the things you have is calculated by accumulating the space used by all of the content within the account, the most apparent being the data files you upload. Two other things can often be ignored by the majority of end users, though - emails along with databases. Larger attachments or databases of big script-driven internet sites can often need a lot of disk space as well. To employ a more familiar analogy, the hard drive space of your laptop or computer is used not only by files you download, but also by docs you generate and programs you add. Similarly, many things are counted for the hard disk space your content employs on a web hosting server, in addition to the uploads.
Disk Space in Shared Hosting
We have created our Linux shared hosting with the idea that the disk space will not be a problem for your websites. While many web hosting suppliers set up accounts using a single server, and as a matter of fact, the most famous Control Panels are made to function solely on this kind of platform, we have taken a different approach. We have groups of servers that take care of every element of the website hosting service, to ensure that your files will be stored on one cluster, the emails on another,the databases on a third one, and so on. Using this cloud platform we achieve two things - the storage space is actually endless for the reason that we can easily attach as many servers and hard disks to the clusters as required, and we raise the efficiency of every machine since just one kind of system processes will operate on it. This tailor-made setup will allow you to expand your web sites as much as you'd like without having to worry about running out of hdd storage.
Disk Space in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server plans have "disk space" as a characteristic simply to stress that it is completely unlimited. We were able to reach that by using a modern, custom-made cloud hosting system, where your files, emails and databases will be kept on separate clusters of servers. We can add extra hard drives or entire servers to all of the clusters and at any time, and furthermore our web hosting Control Panel is made to work with such a system. In contrast, the majority of Control Panels on the website hosting market can work only on one server, and in spite of what lots of companies advertise, they actually create a variety of accounts on just a single machine. Having a semi-dedicated server plan from us, you'll never need to concern yourself with hdd space restrictions and you are able to focus on expanding your sites.
Disk Space in VPS Servers
All of our VPS service come with a huge amount of hdd space in order to fulfill your demands and not restrict the development of your sites. Naturally, if you'd like to run just a single resource-consuming site or plenty of smaller ones, you'll need additional power altogether, so the greater the VPS plan, the more hard disk storage you will have. Moving between the packages is really easy and the further space will be added to your existing account without moving any content or stopping/restarting the server, so in case you reach the storage limit of your present package, you can upgrade with a few clicks in your billing section. Since we provide several website hosting Control Panels with our virtual private servers, you'll have two options for your disk space control - by using Hepsia, all the sites will share the whole server space, while when you use DirectAdmin and cPanel you will be able to set up individual accounts for your domains and set a quota for every account.
Disk Space in Dedicated Servers
With the hard disk space that we supply with all our dedicated service, we guarantee that you can run any kind of website regardless of its size. You'll get no less than 500 GB storage space, which you're able to use the way you see fit - even for private file storage. By default, you'll be given two hard disk drives, which can be employed separately, to take advantage of their full storage space, or they can be in RAID so that one will be a copy the other in real time to make sure that you'll not waste valuable information in the event of a hardware fail. You're also given the option to add more HDDs to increase the entire HDD storage at your disposal even further. This makes it possible for you to create a file or image depository portal without any problems if you'd like. When using the cPanel and DirectAdmin hosting Control Panels that we provide, you can easily make an individual account for every single site that you host on the server and pre-set an allowance for the storage space it'll be allowed to use. If you select the third alternative, our in-house made Hepsia Control Panel, all domains will be operated in one place and they will share the overall server HDD storage.
