Looking for a 30TB+ (Storage) Server
I have a homelab with 6 servers running various things along with one being cold storage for backups dating back years, however, I'll soon be moving countries and need a place to back up all my services to and also actively run them for about 6+ months while things get shipped over, and I eventually begin bringing them back online locally.
- The server would need to be either in the EU or NA. NA would need to have a good connection to the EU.
- I need at least 30TB of usable storage, ideally with RAID.
- I am mainly looking for dedicated servers, as the server needs to be strong enough to run at least as few services I access daily/run (Gitlab, a few gameservers, etc)
- Bonus points if the CPU has a passmark single thread score of 2000+
My best option so far is looking like Hetzner with 4x 10 TB disks for around 70 euros a month.

Check these:
and
They have other dedicated storage servers, check those yourself.
The connection is good, latency is few ms less than EU->New York, use
162.250.188.171for testing.I've used servarica in the past for a couple of years. While they were great, I'm not sure if the servers they currently have make the most sense. They are a little overkill in the RAM department, and a little under in the CPU department (unless I use a secondary machine for the gamerservers). I was deciding between them and Hetzner prior to making the post, but it seems like Hetzner has the better option, at least for now, but we'll see
Contact them and ask whether those configs can be customized.
The first one implies that explicitly.
Their stock of dedis usually runs out fast and being replenished in small batches, so I think they should be able to offer something custom.
Although, a bit over what you're looking for, the price per TB is pretty good in my eyes - 1.65EUR per 1TB of raw storage, considering the level of services, network and support that we offer:
Dual Intel Xeon E5-2650v4 (24 cores / 48 threads total)
128GB DDR4 ECC
12x 6TB SAS Drives with Hardware RAID and BBU
100TB of Bandwidth
119EUR/m (1.65EUR per 1TB)
Can be ordered via PM/email only. Discounted from 199EUR/m. Delivery under 24 hours.
