Will my sourceTV demos take up more space than i am allowed?

Post by HoTnIkS »

I just had SourceTV record it's first full team demo and it was around 500 MB. How much space do I have available on the server before I go over my limit? I read that there is a 2000 GB limit for bandwidth, is that the same thing I am talking about? Any insight would be appreciated! thank you.

No the monthly bandwidth is different from hard drive space you would have to check how much hard drive space you have on your server. My VDS has 100 gigs by the looks of it you might have 200 gig hard drive. one 500 mb file takes up a half a gig ruffly.

If you think about it:
1024 MB in a gigabyte
if you have a 100 gigs of free space
that would be
102,400 MB

if you think about it even if you recorded 20 videos that would take up 10 gigs that ruffly 500 mb each

I hope this clears things up for you.

You can also check how much bandwidth you took up in your control panel under the tab status.
