How does xneelo calculate the cost for disk space over-usage?
If you’re on a Web Hosting package or Volume Plan, this article explains how we calculate charges when your disk space usage exceeds the allocated limit.
Web Hosting disk space over-usage
Disk over-usage is charged at R20 per GB.
Please see the following example:
The Basic hosting package provides 15 GB of storage space, but the package is using 19 GB of disk space in total, which is 4 GB of over-usage.
How it’s calculated:
| Basic package | R99 |
| Disk over-usage | R80 (R20 x 4) |
| Total | R179 |
Volume Plan disk space over-usage
The cost of the Volume Plan will increase depending on the overall amount of disk usage you require. The monthly cost of the Volume Plan will be as follows:
| Volume Plan SA & DE | Disk space quota | Price (includes VAT) |
| Tier 1 | Less than 75 GB | R699 |
| Tier 2 | 76 – 200 GB | R1299 |
| Tier 3 | 201 – 500 GB | R1899 |
| Tier 4 | 501 – 1100 GB | R2199 |
Should you exceed 1100 GB per month, disk overusage will be charged at R10 per GB.

To avoid disk over-usage charges, we recommend either reducing your disk usage or upgrading to a hosting package that meets your storage needs.
