The term "disk space" may also be identified as "disk quota" or "data storage", however all these terms mean the very same thing - the amount of information that you'll be able to upload to a shared hosting account. The full size of the things you have is calculated by accumulating the space taken by the overall content in your account, the most apparent being the types of files you upload. Two other things are usually overlooked by many people, though - emails as well as databases. Big attachments and databases of larger script-driven internet sites will often need a lot of disk space too. To employ a more common analogy, the hdd space of your PC is taken not just by files that you download, but also by docs you make and software programs you install. Likewise, a number of things are counted towards the hdd space your info needs on a website hosting server, in addition to the uploads.

Disk Space in Shared Hosting

We have developed our shared hosting plans with the concept that the disk space shouldn't be a setback for your websites. While many website hosting suppliers produce accounts using one server, and as a matter of fact, the most famous Control Panels were made to function solely on this kind of platform, we have taken an alternative strategy. We have clusters of servers that take care of each part of the website hosting service, so your files are stored on one cluster, your email on another one,your databases using a third one, etcetera. On this cloud platform we accomplish a few things - the storage space is virtually inexhaustible as we are able to install as many servers and hard disks to the clusters as required, and we raise the efficiency of every single machine because only one type of processes will operate on it. This custom setup will enable you to expand your web sites as much as you'd like without worrying about running out of hard disk storage.

Disk Space in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you purchase a semi-dedicated server package from us, you won't need to worry about the storage space that you'll be able to use due to the simple reason that the characteristic is limitless. Unlike numerous other hosting companies that advertise an identical service, yet create accounts on a single machine where a limited number of hard drives can be attached, we make use of an avant-garde cloud system that uses clusters of servers. All of your files will be stored on a single cluster, your e-mails on a separate one, the databases on a third one and so on. This platform gives you at least two noteworthy advantages - first, the hard disk storage can never finish because we can easily attach more servers to each cluster that needs them, and second, the servers will run much more effectively because they will handle just a single type of processes. A semi-dedicated server plan provides you the opportunity to enhance your websites as much as you'd like.

Disk Space in VPS Servers

The hard disk space that we provide with our VPS servers differs depending on the plan that you choose when you register. Using a more powerful server, you can conveniently manage multiple sites, which means more content, therefore the higher the VPS package, the more hard drive space you will have available. Shifting from one plan to another takes just a couple of clicks and it does not involve any kind of service interruption. Your site files, databases and emails will share the the full amount of space your server contains, but if you'd like to have fixed allocations, you'll be able to select cPanel or DirectAdmin for the hosting Control Panel throughout the ordering process. Both instruments will enable you to make hosting accounts with limited disk space and if needed, even to share out space from one account to another. With the third option that you'll find on the order page, the Hepsia Control Panel, all domains will share the storage space.

Disk Space in Dedicated Servers

All our Linux dedicated servers come with multiple hard drives so as to match the processing power you'll get, so you'll never have to be worried for running out of hdd space. The HDDs can operate in RAID, i.e. a drive can be a copy of another drive so as to ensure that all your info will always be protected, alternatively it can be used as a stand alone for even larger overall storage capability. Many hundreds of gigabytes of disk storage will be at your disposal at all times, which means that you will be able to run huge sites, upload huge files or even copy your own archive. Considering that a dedicated server is the most powerful kind of hosting, you'll be able to upload/download files with ultra fast speeds. If required, we also provide the option to add more HDDs and utilize even additional storage space for your content. We offer 3 hosting Control Panels with our dedicated servers - when you use Hepsia, all domains will share the full server space and will be operated in one place, while with cPanel and DirectAdmin you'll have the alternative to make distinct hosting accounts with pre-selected disk space allocations for every domain name hosted on your server.
