  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Possible to access 2nd hard drive on server?

If I get a cloud server and then add more storage but that storage would be a separate drive can Plesk/WHMCS access and provision the second drive?
 
Hi
There is no feature in Plesk that allows to select different storage drives on a system. The question has been partially answered in the following thread:
Also, if you have a volume group configured on the server you can add an additional device to an existing volume group using system tools in order to extend disk space
 
Usually you need to do it under the panel... directly on the system.
For example I have a server that has 2 Hard drives, The first one got the system and panel, the second one was clean, I formatted the second one and assign it to the mail folder.
Something like that involves knowledge in formatting drives, mounting them, editing /etc/fstab and copying the structure of the folders you are getting into the second drive.
