rsdoran,
Yes, hosting a forum and sending little bits of text here and there is not a problem.
But when you put a file that is 109MB in size and it's downloaded just 20 times a month. That's 2.1 GB in traffic for the month. Transfer traffic.
Our file size average is 3.7MB in size. And we get about 400 requests a day to download files. So take 400 times 3.7MB and you get 1.4GB a day on the average or should be 42 GB a month, plus or minus a few gigs here and there...
Hosting large files is a SERIOUS strain on the system, and pocket book.
We really like you guys!
