You can find out more about the cost and procedure for increasing the disk [in this article](https://help.ishosting.com/en/is-it-possible-to-change-the-disk-space-for-vps). The current partition of the disk subsystem will be expanded automatically. You will not need to reinstall the system or change the file structure. It doesn't take time to make changes, just a server reboot. Disk reduction is also possible. ATTENTION! Make sure that the remaining disk space is sufficient to accommodate all the files that were on the server before the changes. When reducing the disk, the virtual server will be unavailable for some time (20 minutes or more). It is also recommended to back up all VPS server data.
