which provider provide block storage pay as you go?

jpeng

for instance, this month I need 300GB ssd storage, I will buy this size of block storage and mount to my VM.
next month I don't need this storage, I will unmount it and discontinue the payment.
Thanks.

The network should be good to asia/hongkong. when we upload files, I don't expect it will consume a lot of time.

To mount to your own (third-party provider) VM or to their VM? If the former the list will be smaller and you're going to need to mount via SMB/NFS etc. which will potentially add another hop to performance. If the latter, there's several (Vultr, LunaNode, BuyVM, ...) but why restrict to block storage, if you need to get a VM anyway then a PAYG storage VPS is also an option. Or just use "Azure Files" in your region.

Yep

You can cancel your slab at any time and be credited whatever time is left.

On LunaNode we have SSD block storage in Toronto for $0.06/GB/mo (billed hourly), it is pay-as-you-go and you can attach to any VM in the same region.

But it is far from HK, you'd have better connection with BuyVM in Las Vegas. Not sure if their's is SSD though.

We do pay as you go storage, $0.06/GB in California (FMT2), Germany.

In Australia, we do it for $0.15/GB.
