Can I Use Kinsta to Host Download Files Along with My WordPress Website?

Hi everyone,

I am planning to move my website to Kinsta. My website is ps2 bios files.

My question is about the download files. My website provides files for users to download, so can I store and serve these files directly from Kinsta, or does Kinsta not allow this? Like the subdomains that hosting providers mostly provide.

If Kinsta is not suitable for file downloads, should I keep my WordPress website on Kinsta and use a different service to host the download files?

I would also like to know what the best option is for good speed, SEO and managing the files.

Thank you.
