Sorry I didn't mean to be disrespectful either, I understand what your saying mate, I don't think it would slow down the site at all though and bandwidth is not an issue either, on our plan we get 3200GB Transfer @ 1 Gbps a month and last month we only used 533GB of bandwidth so we are nowhere near the sites limit.
I'm not sure what Toady's host is like or what plan they offered him but it sounds like one of the hosts I was with before, he is probably on a shared server that promises the world but doesn't deliver under load, I also noticed his server GoDaddy.com is based in Singapore, no offense to anyone from there but I think the US based Phoenix NAP is just a little bit better.
Anyway mate, it's up to you at the end of the day, the offer is there, if you like I can even set up a public folder for you directly on the server where you could host all your files.
PS just found a review of his server and it sounds pretty bad https://www.whoishostingthis.com/host...iews/go-daddy/

What can you say about Godaddy? Quite frankly if you value your sanity you will avoid Godaddy like the plague?
Why?
1. Downtime - Site is forever down. Only for 1 minute, maybe 2 most of the time but it makes your website unusable and customers don't come back.
2. Page load time - Type in your url. Now go and make a coffee whilst the page loads. I made copies of my site and uploaded onto other servers and it loads in less than half the time.
3. Support!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Don't make me laugh. There isn't any. Send them a support ticket and you will get the usual "reply within 22 hours" rubbish. I submitted an urgent support ticket on Monday as my site had become unusable due to server issues. It's now Friday and I'm still awaiting the reply!
4. Their reviews on social networks are screened by them. They remove any negative comments immediately so that only positive reviews are left.
5. User Interface - What exactly is that all about? It's awful. 27 clicks to do anything simple.
6. DNS changes - Don't ever try to update your DNS with them. My God they must do it by carrier pigeon.

Aside from the terrible technical, down-time and customer support, as a female business owner/blogger that has an affinity for animals, I find the pathetic "commercials" and macho actions of the founder sad, tired and insulting. Ultimately, impossible to ignore and so I moved outta there! Anyhow, there are a number of good choices out there - Do yourself a favor by not supporting this backwards culture and getting a better host for your site...........

I can no longer recommend GoDaddy's online services due to their unethical billing practices. I was a loyal customer since 2005 (an eternity, by internet standards), but after the experiences I've had with their "customer service" (or lack thereof) over the last month, I have terminated my account and am no longer doing business with them. I have never encountered such rude, condescending, curt, unhelpful people in my life!
After reading some of these reviews I think Toady should think about finding another Host.
