I rent a 40 TB box with Hetzner set up as a 2x20TB RAID1 paying €78. I can be sure I won't pay more than that each month. With S3, I can be sure I'd pay at least $560 each month for 20 TB plus the traffic - and this made frequent synchronization pretty unattractive to me.
So far their service was very reliable, with hard drives failing a couple of years, but they were replacing them very quickly (half an hour or so) so for me the availability of Hetzner is quite close to what I had with S3 - but I sleep better at night.
