Because getting any hardware out of infra-team on premise is utterly miserable, across the board.

  That's not the only alternative. Rent your VPS and add in extra volumes for like $10 per 100GB.

    Funny thing but netcup has $10 per 1 TB Netcup is under-rated but there are also other providers too at lowendbox/lowendtalk and I am interested to try out hetzner too sometime.

      And if you want to go even cheaper, check out Hetzner their EX63 (go to custom) > 4x 7.68TB drives for like 140 Euro. Not counting the fact that Netcup is raided (also Netcup is limited to 8TB on a VPS). That is like 4.7 Euro /TB. That is like 4$/TB. 6 Euro / TB in a raid 5 setup. I do not understand why they are not using this new pricing model on their older servers. There the best you can get is like 10 Euro /TB (for the single 15TB U.2).

      > Funny thing but netcup has $10 per 1 TB Nice to know, but I was just guessing at what a reasonable price would be :-)
