Disk usage

See how much disk space and how many files your account uses, and which folders, mailboxes and databases take the most.

The Disk usage screen shows what takes up space in your account. Website files, email, databases and backups all count. The figures are measured live each time you open the screen.

Figures

Figure What it shows
Used total space used, of your package's limit (or of unlimited), with a meter that turns red above 90 %
Files how many files and folders you have, of your package's limit (or no limit)
Website files space used by your websites in web/
Email space used by your mailboxes
Databases space used by your databases
Backups space used by your backups

Note: Files counts every file and folder, emails included — each email is a file. Caches, sessions and old emails are usually where most of them are.

What takes the space

Below the figures is a list of every folder in web/, every other folder in your home, every mailbox (Email for), every Database and your Backups, biggest first. Each row has a bar sized against the biggest item.

Tip: old backups and big log files are easy wins. Delete old backups on Backups and look in the logs/ folder with the File Manager.
