What's this for? Chia?
Obviously.
Well, the IPv4 address and the compute requirement make it expensive to offer at that rate.
There's apparently something by Amazon called "Glacier deep archive" which offers $1/TB, but as with anything from these big tech companies, you'll pay with your kidneys and first born when you try to retrieve the data.
Hostsolutions, however network speed is zero Mbit/s atm
Long live Chia!
Not my provider, but I found this gem when browsing the dark web.
CPU: Pentium II 233MHz
RAM: 8MB (16MB with annual commitment)
HDD: 5000TB
Network: dial-up number in +447937 area code, supports IPX connectivity
OS: MS-DOS 6.22, with Doom pre-installed
Price: $7500/month, must be cash
No need to go on the dark web, @cociu already offers this.
Nope, not Chia I'm not interested in it
Hostsolutions perhaps.
Btw @hotlineservers have some storage plans
PulsedMedia offered seedbox slots, 6TB for 7Euros, on three occasions over last few months. But due to Chia BS, it would be stupid to expect a similar promo anytime soon. Hetzner has a SX server with 1Euro per 1TB, but as you might have guessed its also not available due to ongoing crypto BS
That's sad, I needed it for another use case. Pretty sad to see all storage servers getting eaten by Chia
We do this on some of our promo plans, but they're paid annually or more. $80/2TB/2 years is $1.66 per TB.
$250/10TB/2 years is ~$1 per TB, but unlikely we will do it again considering Chia.
But is the network fast my man?
Which server is that out of curiosity, can't remember seeing it when I was doing our research for storage market
This server is not connected to IPv4/6/9 network.
It has a MODEM on Jersey Telecom.
You can dial its landline telephone number to access its console, and transfer files via ZMODEM protocol.

Please note that plotting/farming Chia is not allowed with this provider.
We also have the CS2100 storage servers, still a few barebones remain and we are building them for customers on queue preorder basis at this point.
12x8TB (96TB) for 149€ a month, and that price is still somehow miraculously holding for the moment. Bigger prepayments gets priority on the build queue.
Next nodes should be built in 2-3 weeks, depending on how well we get drives over the next few weeks. Right now waiting for some new HBAs & CPUs to arrive, we ran out of them too lol
@hosthatch said:
SX63 in Finland. Used to be 64 TB for 64 Euros. Since Chia BS, the drives have become scarce which is affecting hetzner's ability to accept new orders. The new storage line from hetzner was almost too good to be true. The SX133 with 160TB storage was on sale for 160 Euros. If one could overlook the setup fee, there was nothing better than this.

I think Abdullah @hosthatch is highlighting the fact that raw storage on a Hetzner server is not directly comparable with the storage services he's offering.
In other words, assuming you can find one for sale, you could get 64 TB of storage by renting an SX-63 and running it with software RAID-0. However, that would be highly dangerous, and it's not fair to compare that with @hosthatch's storage VPS offerings, which have hardware RAID and, I believe, SSD-based caching.
Actually, I was genuinely curious, 64 euros for 64 TB is a great deal and I hadn't seen it before
It's going to be ~58 TB usable storage with JBOD or RAID0, so $1.35 per TB, without any redundancy.
Or $1.80 per TB with 43.5 TB usable storage when doing (minimum redundancy) RAID5.
I love it when @hosthatch is impressed. This could mean summer offers.
The offers comes if/when Chia craters.
I am also looking for cheap storage (no seedbox, no mining, no illegal stuff) because of the situation with HostSolutions. Sadly the promo of HostHatch also expired. I need sth along the lines of 512GB /1 TB/2 TB.
Sadly pretty hard to find something because of Chia
Maybe in 2 weeks it might die and things might come up again on the market
So unlucky, i cant wait 2 weeks.
