Also looking for something like this.
Thanks bye
Its not worth to buy such huge vps. It will be cheaper to get a dedicated from ovh, hetzner or online.net.
https://www.time4vps.eu/pricing/ (click high volume storage servers)
storage server from time4vps is good for cold storage/backup, not for live content
If NAT works for you:
S1000 NAT Storage VPS
Unmanaged
1 Intel vCPU
512mb RAM
1TB RAID Storage
Unmetered^ Port
1 Shared IPv4 (20 Ports)
25 IPv6 or /64 Block
OpenVZ
£70/yr - DE, UK in stock.
right now this can be the best:
Hetzner - Dedi SB30 - 2x3TB - - 25 euro -> with RAID 1 -> 8.3 euro / 1 TB
Contabo - VPS L - 1TB - (raid 10) - 12 EURO / 1 TB
Nocix - i have a dedicated sexcore server with coupon - 2x1TB - 20 USD -> with raid 1 -> 10 usd / 1 TB
with hetzner dedicated server solution I can use this server NOT only for storage
because that i7 cpu and 16GB ram can do the dirty thingz'
but I dont want to deal with dedicated server, I dont want to cry to support to change the dying HDDs...
any suggestion or plans?
If you like it dirty I think Contabo is your best option
I like Contabo!
I have 2x500GB and 1x1TB VPS plan from there

1TB storage VPS with unmetered BW for less than $7 p.month equivalent? damn...... well done sir.
My pain is the nat, never worked behind nat and that memory can be small I think
Be aware that 1TB in the disk drive industry means 1e9 bytes but in file systems it means 1 TiB = 1024**3 = 1.1e9 bytes. So a 3TB drive in a dedicated server is actually about 2.8TiB and that should factor into your $/TiB calculations.
For serving live data, consider Scaleway, 50GB of SSD for 1 euro/mo (i.e. 20 euro/TB), the craziest SSD offer that I know of. That will get you far more iops than any HDD plan. No RAID though.
NAT hasn't been an issue for me and the RAM of those plans is 512MB, not bad at all. I have a couple of them and they are great for storage. The iops can be a bit low for live servers though.
1TB
Scaleway has a limit of how many 50GB chunks you can add per vps. Not sure on that limit exactly, but it is quite low (about 200GB iirc)
You could go for a worldstream server, afaik they will put customer-owned hdds in their servers if requested
It used to be 1TB. Maybe they've lowered it. I see the volume size is now limited to 150GB but I don't know how many volumes you can have on a VPS. You could always use multiple VPS.
Well if you want a good productive higher ram vps with a HUGE amount of storage (for a VPS) then the reality is you want a dedicated server at VPS prices, you just need a dedicated server i think
I agree with this. I got one of those 2x3TB i7-3770 Hetzner boxes because it was the cheapest form of storage at the time, but I've found it awesome to also have such a powerful cpu at my disposal. I've done many 24/7 multi-day computations on all 4 cores that would have taken >5x longer or gotten me booted off of any affordable VPS. If you think you might want a dedi, go for it.
the Hetzner price what I wrote was without tax, that mean the final price;
Hetzner - Dedi SB30 - 2x3TB - 32 euro -> with RAID 1 -> 10.6 euro / 1 TB
so the resources and prices are almost same with contabo, but Hetzner is dedicated and contabo is just a VPS... where the HDD and CPU is shared...
Oh yes, Hetzner is more if you have to pay EU VAT. Without VAT it's well below 30 euro.
My i7 had a failing disk when I got it and they replaced it after some discussion through a ticket. No problems since then and I've had it about 1.5 years.
HI!
I'm in the same doubts like many others... I need a BIG hosting, let's say, 1 to 4Tb for files (pics, video, docs..) and I found some interesting options in this thread. BUT, my concern is, all this content is for adult sites (XXX, porn, you know). And seems like no provider wanna support them... For now I'm working with Servage.net in Germany, nice, but space is limited to 750Gb (almost reached this amount in a couple of months...). VPS offers from this provider is tiny (only 160Gb!!) and still looking for an affordable one. My site is centered in file archive to provide contents for some forums and so on, it's not an intensive traffic one, but an space hungry beast! So, if you know a good and cheap-but-not-trash service with these specs, will be a great help for me! Oh, if located in EU better, due to laws around property and content, and blablbalblaa.......
Thank you very much!
I am also looking for 500GB storage server in Europe for backups. If you can give a good offer for 1TB, feel free to PM me.

I'm located in Spain, and pages will be served to Spain users only, so, I think will be acceptable.
