MongoDB Server Keeps Crashing

Hello! I have a MongoDB server that started crashing the day the US-West servers were running into issues. However, even now when I restart the deployment it runs for a few minutes before crashing again. I am not sure what could be causing this error. Thanks in advance for your help!!

Solution:
that is unfortunately how mongo works, it tries to allocate more disk space than it can, you would want to upgrade to the hobby plan and then you could grow your volume to 5gb

I have a mongodb database that I created a while ago and have never done anything with except ping it, and the volume is sitting at ~430mb of disk usage. your database is likely crashing because it is out of storage space

This is what the Disk Usage shows, is it maybe not up to date?

nope that's up to date, but often times mongo will try to allocate disk space, and then crash if it can't allocate the space it tried to

Oh ok, but the Max amount is 500MB right? And I'm still around 200MB no?

Ok, how can I make it so it can allocates the space it tries to? It should still have around 300MB to do so no?
