How much disk space do I get for files, mailboxes and databases?

Our hosting plans start at 1GB (1000MB) of disk space. Other plans include even more disk space. Pricing for additional disk space, available in 100MB or 1GB chunks, can be found here.

Disk usage in excess of what is included with your hosting plan and any additional space that you have purchased separately is billed at 25 cents ($0.25) per megabyte, based on maximum usage in a month.

Your current disk usage is always shown on the front page of Onsite, your Control Panel.

Your disk usage total includes all files owned by you, any logs in your /logs directory, all messages in your mailboxes, and all space used by your databases.

System files (/bin, /lib, /var, etc) are not included in your total disk usage calculation.

There is also a separate, 1GB limit on each mailbox. If your mailbox exceeds this limit, you will not receive any more email until you are back under 1GB. A detailed break-down of each mailbox in your account can be found here by clicking on the 'see current breakdown' link.

If you want to know how much disk space you are using with files under
your home directory just get a shell prompt and type:

    du -chx /

This gives you a total that does not include databases or mail.

If you want to know how much is being used by logfiles alone, get a
shell prompt and type:

    du -ch /logs
