Storage VPS
This will probably not be LEB but ....
I do not really want to change my VPS holdings, I just need to add storage to them. Any suggestions on how to do that in the 500G-1T range of usable space? Any price suggestions? What if my application needs a bit of fault tolerance, like parallel storage space? Is it possible without me getting into the hardware business? thanx.

What do you mean? You current have VPS and want to get more storage on them? Shouldn't you ask your existing provider?
Or are you looking for new VPS with lots of storage?
Get some decent NAS storage and mount it over NFS
@concerto49: Sorry, I did not include a bit of important info. What I really want is that storage be independent of my VPS's. That way I can "mount" from several VPS. I have never done NFS over WAN's. Is it possible, is it feasible speedwise? Any other options?
As in you are looking for Storage VPS?
RAID60 Storage:
400GB - $11.79USD/month
800GB - $22.43USD/month

Use the current running LEB25 to get these prices.
Again, I'd vouch for @concerto49's offer. Perfect for a storage VPS.
What are you doing that needs that much storage with such a low budget..?
I can do
500gb
100mbps
$13
and
1Tb
100mbps
$25
in choopa NJ.
To be honest I won't recommend doing that, used to have two VPS with a 90ms ping and tried to use ISCSI to connect the two, everything is running slow as hell. I think in order to mount the NFS, you need to:
1vCpu
256 MB Ram Gauranteed
500 GB Space
2500 GB bandwidth
1 IPv4
gb port
$20.00 p/m this is a custom to get the price down.
4GB ram
1.5TB Space
5TB Bandwidth (special restrictions apply)
1000mb/s
1 IPv4
$99/month
4gb ram? @curtisg he is using it as a storage vps. Why would he need that much ram?
@24khost that's what the plan comes with by default
@cutisg That's pretty expensive, and I agree with @24khost, you don't need that much RAM for a storage VPS.
