Web Disk

Open your website files like a drive on your computer over SFTP, and drag files in and out.

Reference Checked against panel v2.3.2 Updated 11 Oct 2026 · 2 min read Open in your panel

Web Disk gives you the details to open your hosting account's files on your computer, like a drive or a folder, and then drag files in and out. It uses SFTP, which is encrypted and reaches all your sites. Use it for images, archives and files over 1 MB, which the File Manager cannot take.

To give someone else access to one folder only, create an FTP account for them instead.

Get your connection details

  1. In the panel, open Files → Web Disk.
  2. Under Connection details (SFTP), note the Server, Port and Username (your hosting account's username).
  3. For the password, use your hosting account password: the one for FTP, SFTP and SSH, which you can change in Password & Security. It is not your Zeyo Host sign-in and not a mailbox password. You can also sign in with an SSH key added in SSH Access.
  4. Click Copy next to Address to copy the full SFTP address. It looks like sftp://[email protected]/home/acme/web and opens your web folder, where each site's files are in <domain>/public_html.

Connect on Linux

  1. In your file manager (Files, Dolphin, Nemo and others), choose Other Locations or press Ctrl + L.
  2. Paste the address and press Enter.
  3. Sign in with your username and password, and bookmark the location.

To mount it as a folder instead, the page shows an sshfs command with your own details filled in.

Connect on macOS

  1. Finder cannot open SFTP by itself, so install an SFTP app that shows the server as a drive or a window. Many are free.
  2. Add a new SFTP connection with the server, port, username and password from the page.
  3. Open the web folder. Each site's files are in web/<domain>/public_html.

Connect on Windows

  1. File Explorer cannot open SFTP by itself, so install an SFTP app or an SFTP drive, for example the free SSHFS-Win.
  2. With SSHFS-Win, choose Map network drive and enter the \\sshfs\… path shown on the page.
  3. Sign in with your username and password. The drive keeps its letter.
