Dammit. Cheap - very cheap - for everything but storage. It seems impossible to find a low-cost server with some big, slow spinning disks on it at the moment.

Dammit. Cheap - very cheap - for everything but storage.
It seems impossible to find a low-cost server with some big, slow spinning disks on it at the moment. I'm really not sure why.
Anyone got any recommendations there? Where would I look, if anywhere, for, say, 4Tb of storage attached to a low-cost virtual or dedicated server, for less than Google Nearline or equivalent?
- theknarf 11y agoI guess you best bet would be Amazon S3?
- danohuiginn 11y agoHetzner will give you a server with 24TB for €82/month, or 5TB FTP space at €26/month
- thenomad 11y agoI didn't know about the latter! Interesting - thanks.
- earlz 11y agoThere is So You Start[1] which offers 2x3TB with soft RAID.. Dedicated server, so you might be able to pay some amount and get them to add more space to it 1: https://www.soyoustart.com/us/essential-servers/ https://www.soyoustart.com/us/essential-servers/
- nwilkens 11y agoWe just introduced an SSD cached storage solution at MNX.io $15/TB -- scalable to 40T. https://mnx.io/pricing https://mnx.io/pricing
- thenomad 11y agoHmm, very interesting. Thanks!
- icebraining 11y agoI'm really happy with TransIP. You can get a cheap VPS with an SDD, and attach a multi-TB network disk to it. That said, it's not the same as having them locally attached, I get ~35Mbps on writes.
