The disk space feature shows the total amount of data that you are able to have on your shared hosting server at any time. With a personal computer, for example, this would be the size of your hard disk or the full capacity of all the hard disk drives in case that your computer has more than one. The same way that the space on a personal computer is shared between installed software, docs, music files and so forth, the server disk space is normally divided between site files, databases and emails. Every single file, folder or email message will take some disk space on the server, which means you should take into account numerous factors, not only the size of the files you upload. For instance, getting sizable e-mail attachments or running a script-driven site where the user-generated info is located in a database may also affect the hdd space you use.
Disk Space in Shared Hosting
We have developed our shared plans with the idea that the hard disk storage will not be a setback for your web sites. While many website hosting companies make accounts on a single server, and in fact, the most popular Control Panels are designed to work solely on this type of platform, we have used a completely different solution. We have clusters of servers that handle each aspect of the web hosting service, which means that your files are stored on a single cluster, your emails on a different one,your databases using a third one, etcetera. On this cloud platform we achieve a few things - the hard disk space is actually endless due to the fact that we can link as many servers and hard disk drives to the clusters as required, and we improve the efficiency of each and every machine since only one type of system processes will operate on it. This custom setup will help you develop your sites as you see fit without worrying about not having enough hard drive space.
Disk Space in Semi-dedicated Servers
Our semi-dedicated server packages have "disk space" as a characteristic to emphasize that it's really unlimited. We can make that happen by using a cutting-edge, in-house built cloud hosting system, where your emails, databases and files will be stored on separate clusters of servers. We can easily add extra HDDs or entire servers to any of the clusters and at any time, plus our website hosting Control Panel was made to work with this type of platform. By contrast, nearly all of the Control Panels on the hosting market can function only on a single server, and regardless of what lots of providers advertise, they really generate many different accounts on a single machine. Employing a semi-dedicated server package through our company, you will never need to worry about hard disk storage restrictions and you'll be able to direct your attention to expanding your web sites.
Disk Space in Dedicated Servers
The minimal hard disk space which you can get with our dedicated servers is 500 GB. You'll have two hard drives, 250 gigabytes each, and it'll be up to you the way in which you will use this storage space. You can have the hard drives in RAID, therefore your data is always protected as one drive will function as a real-time mirror of the second one, alternatively you're able to make them operate individually, to use the overall storage space potential that is available. The storage space of our dedicated web hosting plans is sufficient for everything - vast e-stores, file depository portal, personal archive backup, and so much more. We'll never keep back your sites with regard to the HDD storage they can use. In case that they start growing, we offer you the opportunity to add more hard disks to your current server when needed. When you obtain the server with DirectAdmin or cPanel for the hosting Control Panel, you will also be able to create a unique account for each and every hosted domain name and set a hdd storage space allowance for it. With Hepsia all domain names will be hosted in one place and they'll share the whole server storage space.
