Looking for LA Storage VPS

in Requests
Hey,
I am looking for a storage server in US west coast to host my Jellyfin instance on. I'm currently using BuyVM's Las Vegas location with 1TB block storage attached. It's been performing extremely well, but I am running out of storage and I'd like to find other options for hosting before making the decision to upgrade the block storage.
Specs:
- 1 vCore that's not a snail (500+ GB5 score)
- 1GB ram
- SSD/NVMe boot drive preferred but not necessary (if so, 10GB is enough)
- 2TB+ HDD
- Ideally L.A. location
- Must have the option to upgrade down the line if my library grows even larger
Thank you in advance!

Not LA, but very close - SJC

If Spokane-WA is ok, can recommend @crunchbits - they have NVMe boot as well, but I think they are currently OOS.
@SmartHost also can give a custom quote with your requirements.
@MooCowGalaxy I believe @MrRadic https://www.reliablesite.net/dedicated-servers/los-angeles-dedicated-servers.aspx has some storage dedis in LA.
Otherwise I would say to upgrade the Slab and continue on.
GreenCloudVPS has annual billing, although I usually don’t mind that I’d rather have monthly billing on this
I have been eyeing crunchbits, I’ll see if they come in stock within the next month or so.
Dedis might be a bit overkill for me right now as I’m not going to do any transcoding on the server

Can you run jellyfin on a 1 core vps? I think ffmpeg requires a lot
he might not need to transcode
I disabled video transcoding on all users, so it's just direct playback
Thank you @sh97
We will be in stock soon. I've been purposely quiet so we don't write any checks we cannot cash, but a ton of massive upgrades/new offerings (and increased performance/capability for free for existing users), and some new team members.
Storage will definitely be in stock (with some new variants) prior to a end of month.
Thanks! I had your 2TB VPS a few months ago but didn’t have any use for it so I cancelled, the performance was great. Once they come back in stock I’ll get a 4TB one!
Excuse me, does the new variant refer to more storage space configuration? For example, 3T, 6T?
I also ordered one of your 8T storage vps, but it was canceled because it was not renewed in time at that time. Now I really regret it.
I would look at Hosthatch Storage VM, that is what I use.
