One of cheapest options with 20TB+ of free bandwidth would be Hetzner auction. These servers might be not super reliable, but they don't have setup fee and still capable of serving your files:

- tudorconstantin 9y agoI am using hetzner for about 5 years and had absolutely no problem with them. I am paying 30 EUR/month for a machine with an older generation i7 CPU, 24 GB of RAM, 2x750 GB HDD and 20TB of monthly traffic. The price is close to the electricity cost if I were to host the machine in my home. During these 5 years the machine had not a single downtime. I've read stories that they had lousy tech support, but can't confirm, since I never needed it. Overall I had a great experience with them so far, so I also recommend them whenever I can.
- zorked 9y agoAnother data point: I used to buy servers in Hetzner's auction by the dozens per month. It's very common that the servers will crash and need new HDDs or RAM. I never had a problem with support, but soon learned to treat those servers like cattle: if one is broken, return it and grab a new one. They are worth it even if you have trouble, though. Just make sure you have a backup plan.
- imhoguy 9y agoAgree with that. I also advise to avoid machines with i7-3770 there. I had a problem with this CPU and some mobo combination which ended up in random crashes under network/disk load.
