SOT: kickass vps disk space allotment
I am looking at the KickAss Entry package with 10 gigs. http://www.kickassvps.com/services/windows_vps/plans.php How much disk space is actually available on a 10 gig partition? Is that 10 gigs above and beyond the base Windows install. If not how much space it available for sites software and Databases etc.? How much head room (free disk space) is needed to make sure performance is not effected? Many TIA G -- We would be eternally miserable if our errors worried us too much because as we push forward we will make plenty more. Ernest O.

RE: kickass vps disk space allotment
Hi, Gerald. I've been using a KAVPS for about 3 months now and have had zero problems and good support when I needed something. (I spoke to them about needing good support before getting an account...) At setup, I wanted to mirror my local dev environment, so I asked for an additional 10 GB of hard drive space on an e: drive. I asked if they could just take the space from my c: drive, since I didn't think I'd need 20GB of system/program drive space, but they just added an extra 10GB for the e: drive. (I'm not sure if I'm charged separately for that, since I worked out a package deal based on things I did and didn't need in their package offerings) I've got the Basic package, which allows for 20 GB on the c:drive, which would have to be used for sites, I'm sure. You also get 1GB of space for MySQL or MSSQL in addition to the 10GB on the Entry package, for $5 and $10 per month, respectively. Drive space is cheap...ask for a deal! I don't work for KAVPS, but I'm just a satisfied customer... To be sure about your info, however, I'd email or call them and get your info straight from the horse's, or rather, donkey's, mouth! :o) Rick -Original Message- From: Gerald Guido [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 17, 2008 2:41 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: SOT: kickass vps disk space allotment I am looking at the KickAss Entry package with 10 gigs. http://www.kickassvps.com/services/windows_vps/plans.php How much disk space is actually available on a 10 gig partition?

Re: kickass vps disk space allotment
Thanx Rick, How long did it take for them to set up the server? ;) I had a coupon for a 1 gig MSSQL DB for free so it turned out to be a great deal. I really miss having a server ever since I got out of the hosting biz. ~G~ On Wed, Sep 17, 2008 at 4:06 PM, Rick Faircloth [EMAIL PROTECTED]wrote: Hi, Gerald.
