Searching for low cost storage VPS

I'm currently on Servarica paying CAD$28/mo (USD$21) for 8TB w/ 8GB ram and 4 cores.
Looking for other options with similar pricing.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Needs to be located in US or Canada.
Thanks!

I think that price is cheap already for a storage VPS. If you are fine with a storage box, Hetzner BX31 costs 20.8 euros for 10TB in Germany and Finland.
We can do something sdimilar on a custom quote basis, at some of our US locations with excess capacity.

Maybe @crunchbits will restock. They are the closest
@crunchbits but they OOS at the moment.
Or you can go with @hosthatch Storage VMs, a little bit pricey compared with yours right now, but they have New York, Chicago and Los Angeles location.
Excellent suggestions, thank you everyone. Crunchbits looks worth a shot and I'm not in a rush so I'll keep an eye on them.
If it is for backups, we have location in Utah:

@Arkas
he's out.
Hey, I think I'm going this route. Apparently they are back in stock soon. Do you have a plan with them by chance? If so, could you confirm for me if you can purchase extra storage after you've got a plan. For example if I purchase 8TB can I add 1TB or 2TB a few months down the line if I need more?
I’m with HostHatch. You can upgrade.
When you upgrade you decide if you’d like to upgrade the disk as well.
If you do this, you can’t downgrade.
However, plans are 8 and 10.
So you can only add 2 TB.
After 10 TB you can contact them to upgrade.
But if/when that’s possible/there’s space, only they can tell.
Your requirements matches here AllWebHost they are running the best deal on VPS hosting>>> All VPS Hosting Plans are $5 First Month.
Only member tag? @Arkas this allowed?
I believe he's making a suggestion, he's not the provider. At least that's what I think.
You're right.
It's a shillusion.
Gone now.
crunchbits has a reliable storage server that I used to own. I remember them saying it was based on Raid6 or RaidZ2, so it was pretty good in terms of redundancy.
However, as far as I know, you can jump from one model to another larger one, but whether there's flexibility to increase hard disk space, I'm skeptical. Of course, you could ask crunchbits, or buy a sufficient amount of space all at once.
Servarica does have a unique mechanism for staying where it's best if your needs are such that the space will increase over time.
Now what is this?
We don't have subtitles.
Stop speaking French please.
@anubhavhirani @DP
It's a bug, occasionally I forget that I need to switch languages. I've re-edited this reply.
But yeah, ditto on Crunchbits if you can swing something in stock!
for bandwide limit download and upload or upoad only?
"We calculate based upon inbound and outbound usage. If you go over, you will be limited to 5Mbps until your quota resets or you contact support." - Crunchbits.com
"Bandwidth means the amount of data transfer you are allowed to transfer on the network, both going out of your server, and coming in to your server. This means both incoming and outgoing traffic is counted. Unmetered means that we will not monitor your bandwidth usage and you can use your port fully, all the time, without any limitations. If there is a bandwidth limit, it means that you are not allowed to use more bandwidth than the limit in one month. Your server will be rate-limited to 5 Mbps if you reach your bandwidth limit. Additional bandwidth can be added for $4 per TB by contacting our support. Bandwidth limit is reset on the 1st of every month, regardless of your service due date." - Hosthatch.com - https://hosthatch.com/terms-of-service
Same policy for both companies. In/Out counted, 5Mbps after the cap is hit unless you contact support and work that out with them.
