100TB Storage for Backup

yigitk

I'm looking for most affordable option where I can get low computational resources while having large disks. Any chance except of S3 providers? VPS or Dedicated preferred.

NobodyInteresting

About $50+3 (buyvm vm + 10TB) x 10
So about $530/m for 100TB.
But doubt you will find that much in stock there.
Perhaps @Francisco can think of something :-)

Build your own at home?

100TB for backup? That's what they all say now. #justsaying

So many storage requests lately. It must be the new breakfast with milk from farm and chia cereals.

I am old school. Was going to compliment OP for their p0rn collection.

This new stuff that sounds like a Korean car maker is all new to me

100TB for backup? So much money?

PulsedMedia

In a few weeks we can deliver a 12x8TB machine probably, depends on the queue. 149€ a month.

Those fly off as soon as we can build them, and right now i am unsure when we get the next 8TB drives, is it within a few weeks, or few months.

@PulsedMedia - plotting and farming Chia is allowed? (op probably forgot to mention this itsy-bitsy tiny detail)

What location is this and what bandwidth is included?

Finland on our own DC. 1Gbps unmetered.

Yep, it's for backup. Well, in a sense, they ain't wrong.

@deank Where is Jarland, by the way? And how to make it to there?

deank

Purchase a box of jam in jars.

Open the box, lift it up, and throw it onto the floor.

There ya go; you now have Jar Land. Make sure to walk on it to feel the might of JarLard.

For that much space, it would likely be cheaper in the long run to buy your own equipment and colocate it. The only issue is having to replace the drives when they die.

We wonder why

Congrats on your first post

Have you seen the price of drives...?

Everything went up by at least 30% since Covid began.

Shit's fucked up.

then chia came and most storage has doubled in cost.

Hell, even Supermicro will not give us any guarantees of delivery dates, only "open ended"

On drives or chassis?

Hosting will get harder and harder, with prices of HDD going up, and licenses (cPanel & WHMCS) going up. Special thanks go to Chia founders and farmers.

Just wait for a new coin on SSD.

Then steel coin. Say good bye to steel chassis.

Plastic coin. Get ready for reinforced paper chassis.

Paper coin. No more trees on Earth.

The end.

Oh yeah, good point, I haven't looked into hard drive prices in ages.

I still think that renting hardware starts making less sense as your needs grow larger (as long as you can afford the initial investment), and the increased price of hard drives is going to affect rented servers at some point too (since the hosts will eventually need to acquire new drives for new servers and to replace failing ones)
