How to check disk usage in cPanel
Open Disk Usage in cPanel to see how storage is being used across your account. The tool groups usage by folders, email accounts, databases and website files. Expand folders to find large uploads, old backups, cache files or unused archives. If email is using most storage, check large mailboxes and remove old attachments through webmail or an email client. If website files are large, clear cache folders and delete unused ZIP files. Always keep a local backup before removing anything important. Regular checks help prevent full storage from breaking email, uploads or website updates.
