How short term?
Not a VPS, but https://www.hetzner.com/sb sometimes has a dedicated server with 4x 12TB or 16TB drives, hosted in Germany (FSN or NBG) or Finland (HEL) with 1 gigabit unlimited usage. Monthly pricing, no commitment. If you have IPv6, you can remove the IPv4 and save a €. Their control panel allows for easy installing of an OS, like a VPS would.
Depending on what kind of personal backup you have, it may be worth considering encrypting the drives or wiping the data from the drives when done.
If it can be done within 14 days then Hetzner auction server is the obvious choice since servers cancelled within 14 days won't be billed.
In that case why not a Slab from @Francisco ( https://BuyVM.net )?
Or just get block storage from any of the providers? Like B2 or S3?
I have 400 mbps uplink here, so in theory I can push about 4TB / day, but let's say I will do 1-2 TB / day (lot of small files + other factos), so I'd need about 2-3 weeks to push and another 2-3 weeks to download. That will make it about 2 months.
We can do a 30% discount on monthly orders and create a custom plan for you.

thanks for a hint - buyvm.net - it seems like they do no have block stroage slabs available right now, and the biggest one (10TB) is $50 month, hetzner seems to beat them.
I'll have a look at B2/S3, but I guess they won't be cheap enough
If you only need storage:

that would be challenging, but I like this crazy idea
Well, if you try to push that much data over a 14-day period and then cancel, that will very probably be regarded as abuse by Hetzner (and rightly so)
The 14-day period is a consumer-protection law: a right of a consumer to change one's mind about having purchased a product before (really) using the product. It's not a right to change one's mind about having purchased a product after having abused the product
Congrats on your third comment
