VPS with one time hard disk fee?
Hi everyone, I remember coming across a VPS company that offered a one-off hard disk fee, that is, you paid for the VPS and you could then upgrade your hard disk by paying a one time fee. I can't remember the name of the VPS company though ;( The prices weren't bad and I'm wondering if anyone remembers this company? Any help would be appreciated?
Thanks

Take a look at 123system
That's an interesting idea. Build your own semi dedicated?
@giang Thanks, I believe that IS the company! ;D
@jarland Well, its for some of the lowenders that still want the thrill of a "steal of a deal"... however I'm not sure how sustainable this business model is...
I'm thinking for example w.r.t 123systems,
First year (basic yearly price of a small resource vps with 100 GB is $60)
If the HDD lasts more than 1 year, you end up paying 10 per year after that...
Sounds kind of too good to be true right? But it sorta works as a decent backup node when I think about it
EDIT: Woops, seems he's out of the cheap yearly VPS packages though
You can get my 128MB VPS from them, send me a PM
I just realised I bought a 512 from them, thnx for the offer though @Albert
Reading some reviews though, i think I will hold back on the one time payment, ended up trying @Damian storage plan 50gb to s start with
