New: Add-on Storage Nodes

Posted on September 16, 2009 by NullMind

Yes, you read it right, you can now purchase additional "Storage Nodes" on their own.

Another much requested feature from our users, it means people can grow their storage without the need to purchase CPU/RAM as well, the price is $10 USD (£7.50) per 25GB

How does it work ?

Here are the steps on how to add storage nodes to your VPS

-On your Dashboard, please select "Buy/Delete" Nodes
VPS.NET New: Add on Storage Nodes

The Click "Add Nodes", you will notice the nodes slider now has 2 tabs "VPS Nodes & Storage" (yes, Storage Nodes are RED)
VPS.NET 2 New: Add on Storage Nodes

Just select "Storage" and then you are able to purchase as many storage nodes as you wish, after edit your VPS and again the "storage" tab is present, select the number of storage nodes you wish to add, click save.

And thats it !, your VPS will now reboot and resize the disk partition, depending on how much storage you added it will take a few seconds to a few minutes to boot.
