Give your data room to grow!

We are pleased to announce the release of a new feature that you've
been eagerly anticipating for some time now : the ability to increase
the size of your disks!
You will need to perform two steps to do this:
- Change the volume of your disk,
- Run the necessary update on the file system itself.
For expert servers, only the volume change phase of the operation is
done via our website. You will need to manually run the file system
update on your own.
Please remember that you will need to have enough quota available in your account to expand your disk to the desired size.
You can view our prices at the following page: http://www.gandi.net/hosting/proposal/price/
For step-by-step instructions to guide you along the disk-resizing procedure, please visit our wiki at: http://wiki.gandi.net/en/hosting/manage-disk/resize-disk
We are continuing to work on adding additional key features to our hosting service, such as the ability to perform backups, snapshots or copies of your data, and even the sale of additional IP addresses. And of course, many other surprises as well...

Do you support expanding attached disks? Many filesystems support online resizing, to avoid the need for downtime.
Great new features.
I would like no know what is the maximum size a disk can have.
Thank you in advance!
Thanks mc!
