Upgrade VPS Components

Component upgrades extend the resources of your current plan—RAM, vCPU, Drive Boost storage, or IPv4 addresses—without changing tiers or reinstalling the OS.

​
What You Can Extend

  • Increase RAM for memory-intensive workloads.
  • Add extra vCPU cores for parallel processing.
  • Apply a Drive Boost to unlock additional disk space.
  • Assign additional IPv4 addresses.
  • Mix and match any combination of the above.
Billing is prorated just like plan upgrades—you pay only the difference for the days remaining in your billing cycle.

​
Order a Component Upgrade via the Portal

1

Open the VPS dashboard

Sign in at the EDBB VPS Portal, go to Services, and choose the VPS you want to extend.

Go to Upgrade → Upgrade Components

Click the Upgrade tab, then press the blue Upgrade Components button. The comparison page lists each resource you can increase.
Upgrade Components selection
3

Select resources & checkout

Choose the additional RAM, vCPU, disk, or IPv4 addresses you need, pay the prorated invoice, and the changes apply automatically once payment clears.
Component upgrades may trigger a short reboot so the new resources take effect. Save your work before confirming the order.

​
After Payment

  • Upgrades are processed within minutes after payment confirmation.
  • Expect an email summarising the change.
  • RAM & vCPU require a cold reboot inside the OS.
  • IPv4 addresses must be configured manually on the VPS.
  • Drive Boost expands the virtual disk, but you decide when to grow partitions or filesystems.
