Storage Quotas and Upload Limits

Ensuring you have enough space for your data is essential. This guide explains how storage is tracked and what happens when you reach your capacity. Storage quota applies only to default storage, bucket storage is calculated separately.

Account Storage Tiers

Your storage capacity depends on your active plan:

  • Free: 2 GB
  • Basic: 10 GB
  • Pro Lite: 20 GB
  • Pro: 32 GB
  • Enterprise: 50GB or more, the 50GB is a default amount if custom is not provided.

These limits apply to the total size of all files and imported data stored in your library.

File Upload Limits

Null Drop supports extremely large individual file uploads:

  • Maximum upload size per file: 120 GB.
  • Quota Requirement: Your account must have enough remaining quota to store the file. For example, a Pro Lite user (20 GB limit) cannot upload a 30 GB file.

Reaching Your Limit

If your usage exceeds 100% of your plan quota, your account enters a "Frozen" state:

  1. New uploads are blocked across the web dashboard and API.
  2. Existing files remain fully accessible. You can still view, download, and share your data.
  3. API requests for new uploads will return a 403 Forbidden error until space is cleared.

Managing Your Quota

If your storage is full, you can restore full access by:

  • Deleting files: Removing items from your library immediately restores your available balance.
  • Upgrading: Moving to a higher tier instantly expands your capacity and unfreezes your account.

Storage Tracking

You can monitor your usage in real time via the storage progress bar in the dashboard. Usage is calculated based on the actual size of files stored on our servers.

Buckets (Object Storage)

Buckets are completely separate from your main storage quota and are not affected by the "Frozen" state. You can create as many buckets as you want and each bucket have metrics.

Metrics

You have set amount of Class A and Class B requests, your plan doesn't affect this amount. You can check your current usage in the bucket settings under "Metrics".

  • Class A: PUT, DELETE, POST
  • Class B: GET, HEAD, LIST

Limits

Class A requests are limited to 250k Class B requests are limited to 500k

You can see your Request Traffic, Request Distribution and Total Requests in the bucket settings under "Metrics".

Bucket Settings

Each bucket have its own settings, you can access them by clicking on the bucket name in the "Object Storage" tab then the bucket's name and settings.

you can set:

  • Bucket public / private access
  • Bucket CORS policy
  • Bucket Object Lifecyle (WIP)

Bucket View

Our app allows you to directly view, upload and delete files from your bucket.

Bucket Locations

We currently support only EU Central (Frankfurt) however we plan to add more locations in the future.
