disk space on server question
For those with server management knowledge: What percentage of disk space is
the highest you like to see a web server running at? What kind of ballpark
would you expect to start seeing problems at?

Well, you wont get a good defrag with anything less than 20% free space.
Right now, I have 136 GB HD in my servers with about 40% used space. Once
they hit about 75% used, I will look at upgrading them

Define web server. The HoF site has an archive of all threads, the site code
itself and then the DB. This list alone is over a Gig with CF-Talk about the
same (a little over 3 gig for both). Add in other lists and site stuff and
the DB alone can be over 5 gig.
