Can any one describe about alfresco file storage size? Or please suggest any good document.

I would like to know :

1. Max file size can be uploaded?

2. Max number of files can be uploaded at a time?

3. If my system has 100GB free disk space, can I successfully upload 100GB files in alfresco? , Consider that no transform rules are set.

4. The statement :-  All files uploading in to alfresco are saving in system disk space in binary format and meta data in the database.  Am I right?

Hi,
you have also to take into account the indexes dimension, which is one of the most important variables.
Take a look here for info about Configuration and Tuning http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Server_Configuration
About your questions:

1. depends on your system and can be limited by timeouts and other variables
2. if you mean concurrent upload, it depends on how your system is configured and tuned
3. you can upload as much files as you wish, provided you have the correct architecture and the system is configured properly. For 100 GB surely you'll need a well-throttled system
4. You're right: files are saved into alf_data in binary format and metadata goes into database

Regards,
Andrea
