In my particular situation even if performance was to remain a little slower than normal, in my situation I don't need speed I need reliability and bandwidth more than speed because most people who are involved in what I'm doing use very cheap servers some even try to use free servers, in fact someone a few weeks ago came into the group that I'm in that is a social Media Group for what I'm involved in came in and said his data center was getting pissed off because he was approaching one terabyte downloads so I need reliable service that doesn't get pissed off because I made you 30 TB or more, so when someone downloads are using an application from me, speed is a is a welcome surprise,
Plus I'm using a CDN type setup, the dedicated servers are the CDN the smaller servers like these killer deal vpss are going to be where the content is pulled from so I really don't need speed I need reliability and terabytes bandwidth.

Wouldn't recommend the "BRUTAL 2022 Black-Friday Killer Deal II" as the drive can only read at burst 8~10MB/s and after a few seconds settles down to 0.8~2MB/s when trying to upload from the server (so downloading to me, a client). Tested with ftp and http via filebrowser docker container.
I have contacted HostSlick through a support ticket and they said that "yes, its a normal Harddrive, under usage as well so this is about okay-ish speed."
Not looking for constant 100MB/s (so gigabit) 24/7, but would assume a better performance then USB 1.1 spec speed or DSL for a hard drive read speed.
And a speed test from my location to Amsterdam is 257Mbps. So 257Mbps / 8 (to get MB) = 32MB/s. I like to account for a 20% loss in speed, so would assume I would have a download speed from the sever of 25.7MB/s (not accounting for drive speed so best case).
Below is the yabs I ran before posting, and two screenshots from netdata that I installed via docker to get some stats when transferring over ftp a 2gb file from the server to myself (earlier today).
Maybe I am not used to what VPS hard drive speeds should be but I wanted to inform others.
Getting the same here. Hope they can fix it.
Here is mine, with the roulette wheel spin giving me extra RAM instead of extra storage:
I have no real basis of comparison to know if those speeds are good or bad, just another Killer Brutal II example
Glad to hear I am not the only one (and thank @SocksAreComfortable for another benchmark for others / another data point). @rjbl yabs they posted on December 13 has a LOT better drive, for their lowest disk speeds was Block Size 4k Reads at 85.08 MB/s at the time of their run.
With 0.8MB/s ~ 2MB/s upload speed due to the drive read speeds I have no idea what to do with the server now since "On VPS and dedicated servers no full refund will be honored" other then hosting a very simple webpage but that defeats the purpose of the 1tb of storage.
