Just got an e-mail notification from DO's uservoice. Looks like they're starting a (free) beta for additional diskspace.

To apply you'll have to e-mail [email protected]

    ... Please keep in mind that this is access to an early BETA version of the product, meaning there may be bugs, downtime and absolutely no guarantee of reliability or data retention. (In short, do not use the beta to host production data.)

    ...

    ... At the end of the beta period users may also lose all access to any data stored, so potential participants in the beta should be aware of this before volunteering.

    ...

    I'm sure Jar will post insider info.

  • Glacial pace.

    extra diskspace?

    I like what DO, but sometimesI need more diskspace than I need power and RAM. Are you guys currently looking at custom diskspace?

  • Yeah, I just wonder how these extra storage drives will work.

    Do you need to mount them or do these come with a new storage droplet?

    From what little I do know, I'm pretty sure it's going to be awesome. I was aware of the work being done, just not that it had reached this stage. Tim has been putting a LOT of thought and work into this, and I'm excited to see what has been done.

  • looong overdue, very surprised this didnt happen at least a year ago

    DO was in a luxury position were they didn't really need to implement all these feature requests since their userbase was growing steadily anyways.

    I applied yesterday let me know if anyone is getting a response from DO.
