wait for a sale and get something from hosthatch, best storage VM provider that I've used hands down.

If Chicago suffered data loss due to whatever issue(s), it doesn't necessarily mean it'll happen elsewhere.
@frakass - You can check out NexusBytes.
They have storage services is NL as well.
500GB - $4/month or $38.40/year (about $3.20/month) [ aff | non-aff ]
As a customer I hope you are right, but the failure mode seen there simply should not happen, and it is not the first time Hosthatch has had this type of failure.
Between the possible cached raid failure modes (total loss or loss/corruption of write cache), they somehow ended up with a 3rd option: partial corruption of data at rest. It should be difficult/impossible for this to happen if best practices of monitoring and scrubbing are followed
Chicago has always been bad, I have had storage VMs with them in every other location for years with 0 issues. Their NL stuff is particularly fantastic, which is why I recommended them here.
