Data Storage
Server disk is not only capacity—it supports backup strategy, redundancy, and encryption so hosting disk layouts protect integrity across reboots and migrations.
Database Mart Disk List for Server and Hosting Storage
Database Mart offers disks for big data, cloud apps, websites, and databases. This disk list is your reference for sizing server disk before you pick a plan: compare VPS add-ons and dedicated SSD, SATA, and NVMe rows, then confirm live hosting disk SKUs on product pages. Use the tables below for upgrade math—not as checkout—and pair them with pricing when you model server HDD or flash costs.
Why Server Disk and Hosting Disk Matter in Our Disk List
Every upgrade row in this disk list ties back to how server disk behaves under real workloads. Hosting disk choices affect boot time, database I/O, and backup windows—whether you start with a small VPS volume or scale dedicated server HDD and SSD tiers.
Fast Read/Write
Read and write speed shapes boot, app load, and batch jobs; SSD and NVMe rows in this disk list highlight where hosting disk performance matters most.
Data Security
Disks hold the OS, apps, user files, and databases so server disk remains durable after power events—plan hosting disk tiers before you split system and data volumes.
Server Disk Upgrade Tables in This Disk List
Beyond base plans, Database Mart publishes add-on hosting disk pricing for VPS, dedicated, and GPU servers. Treat the blocks below as the live disk list for storage upgrades; confirm totals on VPS hosting, dedicated hosting, or GPU server hosting before you budget server disk.

Top-Tier Brand Storage in the Database Mart Disk List
Hardware behind this disk list uses enterprise-grade media from Samsung and Western Digital (WD). Brand consistency helps you trust each server disk upgrade row when you standardize hosting disk across US data centers.
Understand Hosting Disk Types from the Disk List
Choosing media starts with workload, not the largest server HDD line item. Use the matrix below to map server disk types to cost, latency, and capacity before you add SATA, SSD, or NVMe from the disk list.
| Type | Characteristics | Typical Use Case |
|---|---|---|
| HDD | Low cost, large capacity, slower speed, mechanical parts | Cost-effective bulk storage |
| SSD | Fast speed, more expensive than HDD | Lightweight services |
| SATA SSD | Faster than HDD, slower than NVMe, more affordable SSD option | Stably running websites and medium-load applications |
| NVMe SSD | Ultra-fast, uses PCIe interface, high performance | High-concurrency and high-performance businesses |
RAID Array Support for Server Disk Layouts
RAID changes fault tolerance and I/O for hosting disk groups on dedicated servers. Pair this table with the disk list upgrade rows when you design server HDD mirrors or striped SSD sets—not as a backup substitute.
| RAID Level | Minimum Number of Drives | Fault Tolerance | Characteristics | Recommended Uses |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RAID 0 | 2 | None | Extremely high reading and writing speed | Caching and non-critical high-speed processing scenarios |
| RAID 1 | 2 | 1 disk | Fast reading, slightly slow writing | System disk, key business data |
| RAID 5 | 3 | 1 disk | Fast reading and medium writing | File storage, general business platform |
| RAID 10 | 4 | 1 disk per mirror pair | High performance and high fault tolerance coexist | High-concurrency databases and high-performance services |
FAQs About Our Disk List and Server Disk Options
Answers on hosting disk upgrades, server HDD versus SSD, RAID limits, and how this disk list relates to live server disk inventory on VPS and dedicated servers.
How should I choose between SATA SSD and NVMe SSD?
Choose NVMe SSD when you need ultra-fast I/O and low latency; choose SATA SSD when you want strong value for websites and medium-load apps. Both appear as upgrade paths in this disk list alongside server HDD options.
Can different disk types be mixed on one server?
Yes. Mixed hosting disk layouts are available on dedicated servers—tell us your server HDD, SSD, and NVMe targets and we will tailor a hybrid disk list shortlist.
How much server disk space do I need?
Small sites often need 20–50 GB; databases and dynamic apps often need 50–200 GB; large media or big data may need 500 GB or more. Map tiers in this disk list to your growth curve, including when a 1TB server HDD tier makes sense versus flash.
Can NVMe drives be used for RAID configurations?
No. NVMe drives are not used in traditional RAID sets here because of architecture and speed profiles. Plan NVMe as separate hosting disk volumes per our disk list notes.
Should I keep the system drive and data drive separate?
Yes. Separating OS and data volumes limits blast radius if you reinstall the system. Standardize that split when you document server disk standards from this disk list.
Can I upgrade my server disk while the server is in use?
Yes. We support disk expansion, replacement, and upgrades so hosting disk can scale with your business. Confirm the exact server disk SKU on your plan before you schedule work.
Can RAID prevent data loss on hosting disk?
Some RAID levels tolerate one drive failure, but RAID is not a backup. Use RAID with snapshots or remote backup for server disk data you cannot recreate from the disk list alone.
Is hosting disk space shared or dedicated?
Yes. Database Mart server disk is dedicated—not shared with other tenants—so hosting disk performance and isolation match what you order from the disk list add-on tables.
Should I install the operating system on an NVMe drive?
We do not recommend installing the OS on NVMe in all layouts; compatibility and RAID design may differ. Keep the system volume on the server disk type your plan specifies and use NVMe for hot data when the disk list allows.
