You should ask this of your shared hosting provider. – joeqwerty Oct 13 '11 at 17:34

This question is unlikely to ever help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet. See the FAQ for guidance on how to improve it.

Marking this as "too localized" -- The answer is it depends on your hosting company (call or email them to ask).

Many probably have an upload limit in their PHP/ASP/whatever engines (the ISP I worked at limited you to 10MB file uploads), and if you try to use more disk space or bandwidth than you're paying for you're probably in for an unpleasant "You No Can Has" of some kind (If you're lucky just a bigger bill. If you're less lucky your transfer getting stopped in the middle. If you're unlucky your site becoming a "This site has exceeded its bandwidth limits" page)
