# Request a higher disk size limit

Ask E2E to raise your disk size limit when a disk has reached it. The limit caps the size
of each single disk.

## Before you begin

- Permission to update datasets in the project. A Member gets it through a policy that allows updating datasets.
- A disk that has reached your disk size limit. The limit is 15,000 GB unless E2E has set a different one for
  you. Until the disk reaches it, [resize the disk](/tir/tir-block-storage/how-to/increase-the-size-of-a-disk/)
  as usual.
- The limit you want, in whole GB.

## Send the request

1. In **Block Storage (Disk Dataset)**, select the disk's row, then open the **Resize Disk** tab.
   At the limit, TIR offers to send a request to E2E's team for more storage.
2. Select **Request**.
3. Enter the limit you want, in whole GB. It must be above your current limit.
4. Select **Request**.

The request goes to E2E, which reviews it.

After E2E raises the limit, [increase the disk's size](/tir/tir-block-storage/how-to/increase-the-size-of-a-disk/).
