More RAM = more concurrent operations. 🧠 than the Starter plan, which is essential for resource-heavy plugins like WooCommerce or page builders.
- Storage: You get 50 GB of NVMeNVMeNon-Volatile Memory Express — the fastest SSD protocol, connecting directly to the CPU via PCIe bus. Up to 7x faster than standard SATA SSD. SSDSSDSolid State Drive — storage that uses flash memory chips instead of spinning disks. 10-100x faster than traditional HDD drives. space 📂, which is much faster than traditional SSDs, ensuring quick data retrieval for large media libraries.
