You may assume anything, but the satellite is forced to believe that what’s you allocated is a true storage (it doesn’t check it), however, sooner or later the truth will be discovered, when your node cannot accept any piece (we have a precaution check - if the node has less or equal than 500MB - it will advertise itself as full). > [@What happens if a node runs out of space?](https://forum.storj.io/t/what-happens-if-a-node-runs-out-of-space/8894/8): > > No. Even if you have no space on disk you can still respond to audits because everything needed for that is in memory and not on disk. You will fail to write down the order and you will not get paid for download traffic but that should be the only impact. If you don’t get suspended you also don’t get disqualified. The storage node is checking free space on every upload. As soon as only 500MB are left it will unsubscribe from the node selection by sending a message to the satellite. The sate… I would not lean only on that though anyway - we may have a bug. It will be fixed as soon as it’s discovered, but it will not help your node to survive in the suggested approach. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.storj.io/t/trash-does-not-go-away-in-7-days/25936)._
