Increase Amazon WorkSpace size to 512 GB

To increase your Amazon WorkSpace storage to 512 GB, you'll need to modify the root and user volumes. Here's how to do it:

As a user (if self-service permissions are enabled):

• You can increase your root volume (C: drive for Windows or / for Linux) up to 175 GB
• You can increase your user volume (D: drive for Windows or /home for Linux) up to 100 GB
• Note that there's a 6-hour waiting period after WorkSpace creation before you can increase disk sizes
• After that initial period, you can only increase disk size once in a 6-hour period

As an administrator (required for larger sizes):

1. Open the WorkSpaces console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/workspaces/v2/home
2. In the navigation pane, choose WorkSpaces
3. Select the WorkSpace you want to modify
4. Choose Actions, then Modify root volume or Modify user volume
5. Choose a volume size or select Custom to enter a custom size (up to 2000 GB)
6. Save changes

Important notes:

• WorkSpace volumes come in set configurations: [Root(GB), User(GB)]: [80, 10], [80, 50], [80, 100], [175 to 2000, 100 to 2000]
• You need to set the Root volume to at least 175 GB to expand the User volume beyond 100 GB
• After the increase is complete, the WorkSpace must be restarted for changes to take effect
• The process might take up to an hour
• During the increase, users cannot change compute type, switch running mode, restart, or rebuild the WorkSpace

To achieve 512 GB total storage, you could configure the root volume to 300 GB and the user volume to 212 GB, or any other combination totaling 512 GB, as long as you follow the configuration requirements.
