Why is my control panel showing that I have 554MB when I only have 316MB in my public_html folder?

I had only 327MB used last week and have only uploaded less than 1MB since then.

I just did a full backup of my talk2azs.x10host.com and found I only have 316MB in my public_html folder.

I really try hard to keep my data well under 500MB.

Why did my disk usage go up so fast when I did not upload that much since last week?

I can see you are using around that much on disk data.

The main two locations i see usage on are :
324M public_html
159M logs

The logs can be truncated / cleaned or removed as you need.

Where are the logs located. Can I remove them? If you have to remove them, please do.

Thanks

I just found them. I will go ahead and back the, up and remove them from the x10 server.
