Question about disk space

Posted on April 1, 2015

I want to know if the disk space of any plan considers the Operating System or if it is only for applications. For example, if I have a plan with 30GB of disk, and Ubuntu takes 0.2 GB, do I have only 29.8 GB for my applications and data or I have 30 GB?
