Re: ISP - communitech.net

I only had one comment about the original post on this topic: you might be
hard pressed to find a host that will allow a 3Gb chunk of disk for any one
using a shared server, even with overage charges.  If the average server has
a 9 or 12 Gb disk in each server, your client will be using 25 - 33 percent
of the whole disk.  I'd venture to guess that any one server might host 100
users at minimum.  They may have to go for a much more expensive lease
option.
