EU/CH ZFS Storage VPS

I'm looking for an EU or Switzerland storage VPS to use as a ZFS send backup, i.e. Hetzner Storage Box not an option, zfs.rent is not in the EU, and rsync.net is too pricey.

Storage: 4TB+, preferably plus 10-20Gb NVMe
CPU: 1 vCore EPYC or Xeon
RAM: 2GB+
1Gbit/s, 4TB+/mth, IPv6
Budget: 75-100 EUR/yr

Looking for reliable, long-term solution, so annual payment discount preferable. Advice on reliable providers appreciated!

Thank you!!

    Hi,

    should be quiet fitting:

    https://layer7.net/storage-server

    but also with all the other cloud servers you can have a 2nd disk with a higher space:

    https://layer7.net/cloud-server

  • Dunno if it works for ya, but perhaps PulsedMedia's Storage boxes are a good fit.

  • Thanks very much @davide, Hostbrr was already top of my list, but I'll take a look at @layer7.

    Hi,

    yes, while the difference between the storage servers and the cloud servers is, that cloud servers can have one additional disk and the storage servers can have up to 3 additional disks.

    Also for the cloud servers, you will have more than this 50 GB NVMe for the 1st disk ( os )

    Are the hostbrr storage VPS faster then Hetzners storageboxes?

    Hetzner dedicated server is limited to 1gbit, so if you share the line it will be slower, I make use of Hetzner storage box and always max out 1gbit line.
