    Yes, it is the same amount of space on a VPS as it would be on a PC. Alin has a good point though, the video's quality will determine the size per video.

    You should also consider the Disk Space required for the OS, Control Panel if any and etc. on the VPS!

    40GB VPS means you will have like 38GB available.

    I'd recommend to get at least +10 GB more for your VPS

    You won't get total 40 GB total space for usage on server because OS and cPanel installation requires some space.

    The unit 40GB would be same on every device. Do you want to know the command to check the disk quota on your VPS?

    Checking disk usage is very simple through WHM interface for anyone, not experienced in SSH..
