Looking for a storage server

:)

- 8 drives minimum, looking for as much space as possible
- 1/2/10 Gbps, 10TB+ BW
- 5000+ CPU Benchmark - http://www.cpubenchmark.net
- 8GB or more RAM
- Anywhere in the U.S.
- RAID with BBU would be nice but not required
(no budget in mind)

This will be used for backups, I have 10+ servers that need to be backed up several times a day. Most of them are in LA and Jacksonville, some are around Asia and Europe.

Thanks!

    What RAID are you looking to run? RAID1 seems most logical for a backup server.

  • Try time4vps , serverhub, contabo, wholesaleinternet etc..

  • @Ernie would surely be able to help you.

  • Do you have a budget?

    We can do a E3-1230v2 server 4 x 2TB Drives with a LSI MegaRaid 9260 -4i with a BBU for $199/month.

    4 x 3TB Drives would be $239/month and 4 x 4TB Drives would be $279/month with the same processor and RAID controller seen above. All three plans come with 8GB RAM.

    The E3-1230v2 has a CPU Benchmark score of 8847

    It would be hosted in Phoenix, Arizona.

    Will run RAID 50 or RAID 60

    8 drives minimum

    No budget as long as the price is fair for the specs. I'm pretty open for disk space.

    I'll see if I can do 8 drives. Sorry my last offer was 4 drives, I apologize!

    This was mentioned by @ru_tld https://ru-tld.ru/en/aktsionnyie-servery/#3010
    incredibly low price for 12 drives, not to mention it's in Singapore/Hong Kong.
    ...which doesn't fit your "US" requirement, but really, backing up to an entirely different location/continent does make sense. And I bet the upload speed will be more than enough for backups.
    Also they have 12x2TB for 199 EUR in NL a bit down below.

  • Seems like this server is around 140 euros on LeaseWeb's website, not sure how they managed to get this deal. Although this could be good for me to backup some servers in Asia, I would rather keep everything in one place.

  • If you drop me a line, I'll see what we can do.

  • The best offer I have now is 12x 3TB + RAID for $199.

    Well, maybe he doesn't mind if the server is in the colonies and not in the mainland :p

  • Depending on your budget Delimiter has systems with upto 36 disks per system.

    The best offer I have now is 12x 3TB + RAID for $199.

    If its a credible provider, I would take it. But make sure the network is good, you don't want to have to migrate that much data out if the network turns bad.

    I'm also looking for something similar to this.
