    I need a good hosting for my forum which will soon have many users.

    I need some 200GB HDD and a sufficient amount of bandwidth but >500GB.

    I dont need a shared hosting and i dont like it and a good percent of the CPU usage.


    The lower the price u give me the higher the chance i get it for whole year.

    Can I ask why you need SUCH a high amount of HD space? For that amount you generally have to go for a dedicated server.

    Also, what is your budget?

    Please remember to make your requirements realistic.

    You should try dedicated server not shared hosting.

    I used to be an admin on a forum with well over 25,000 members and over 2million posts.

    The database was roughly 700MB, no where NEAR 200GB.

    Why on earth do you need something so large?

    Bandwidth is understandable, although your space requirements are really proper for what your wanting to do.

    unless you are thinking about hosting files you won't use even close to 50gb of space

    you'll be fine with around 5gb - member profiles don't take up much space, it's the post part of the database - you can probably get around 500mb database for 500,000 posts or a little less depending on size and content - and that's a LOT, not many forums can get to 10% of that over their lifetime. and since you said it will "soon" have this much traffic - you are making a bug assumption - start small and then grow your host as your site grows, don't jump.

    You will need a VPS plan for that. Search around this forum there are many providers.

    with 200GB space, you must buy dedicated server.
    And what about a budget? I am sure You'll be able to find a suitable host.

    I guess 15 GB will be sufficient for you. If not, then you can upgrade your plan then. I can provide you hosting as per your requirements (15 GB space) only for $11.99/month or $129.99/year.

    Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
