From OC10 to VPS- Disk Space?

We are currently running on an OC10 (PASS53) but are almost ready to move to a VPS (middle offering).

On the OC10, we have 10GB of hosting space to resell and an additional 10GB of space to publish our resellers site on and to test fit some websites we build for our customers.

Does the VPS plan work this way? Thanks for any input on this.

Rod

No you can divide/quota the space allowance you you want to.

You don't get a free account. You have one account that you divide up like Skip said.

So, to recap...
You set the sizes for your 'main' site, and whatever reseller goodies you want to have.... Set up the packages the way you want it. Your 'reseller' - what is now your free account - will actually show up in your WHM now.

The good news is - if your reseller is only 100mb using 1gb of data transfer each month, then you can set it's 'plan' this way, leaving you more space to resell.

Thanks for all of your responses! The info helps a lot!

I think I can talk the boss into going to a VPN server within the next week or two. We have some cleanup to do first before we make the move, but I am excited about this next step.

Again, thanks for your help!

Yes, VPS is well worth it! Faster speeds, more server control (restarts, etc), SSH access, etc... And support will move your sites' cpanels (and files) to the new VPS as well, for free!
