Searching Storage VPS in the US (or EU too)!
Hi, I'm currently searching for an storage VPS with this kind of specs:
CPU: 1Core or vCore (with low CPU steal please!)
RAM: 1GB is fine, 2GB would be ok
Storage: At least 10GiB for the OS, 250GiB as an storage slice to store the files (if it can be upgraded later if I need more space, it would be fine)
Network: At least 250Mbit/s, 10TiB monthly or unmetered (Although I use around 5TiB monthly, but I really dislike metered networks with bandwidth limits)
That's it, I currently pay 4.75USD monthly for 1vCore, 1GB of RAM, unmetered bandwidth and 250GiB of Storage.
Do not recommend me Deluxhost, I already tried their Storage VPS and the disk speeds were awful (Around 15MiB/s, xd?)
Thank you, kisses

If you're OK with Canada, look at Servarica Storage options:
Polar Bear Storage:
2 GB RAM / 2vCPU / 12TB at 1Gbps Bandwidth / HDD - RaidZ2 2 TB - $5 USD/monthly or $48 USD/yearly.
See: https://servarica.com/all-offers/ (specifically the storage plans).
There are also cheaper (but yearly only) storage plans.
Can barely call that storage, there's a billion providers for that low amount.
Which also means you won't have too much trouble getting something good
HostBrr 2TB Storage box(US) $30/y(aff)
)
2TB NVMe Cached HDD Storage
DirectAdmin management
10Gbps @ 10TB Bandwidth(its actually unmetered if you know how to set it up
SSH/FTP/sFTP stuff
Use coupon BFBOX for the recurring discount.
I personally use their EU one, connected it via a supercheap VPS using this tutorial and my own customizations to rclone.
Honestly better this way because I can shift my VPS provider whenever I want without having to migrate TBs of data. All I need to do is install rclone/fuse/cifs, copy-paste the storage systemd file and create dir where i wanna mount the storage.
Been subscribed to them since early 2025 and have moved like 5-6 VPS providers but storage box is always reliable. infact i got an upgrade from 1gbps to 10gbps earlier last year when they migrated their DC.
Combine the storagebox with a cheap shitbox anywhere in US(or EU if you dont mind a little latency and a hackery with rclone vfs cache), you're set.
Best part? You can open a ticket with labze and he'll allow you to upgrade the box at recurring discount even if the offer is over.
for non-aff link, remove the aff parameter from URL and you're good :) affs help me pay for my jellyfin media server that i share with the boys.
Hostbrr's hybrid storage:
1 vCore AMD EPYC 7003/9004 CPU
1 GB ECC RAM
15 GB NVMe Gen4 Storage
1000 GB HDD Raid-6 storage (NVMe Cached)
5000 GB Bandwidth @ 10 Gbps
1 IPv4 & IPv6/64
Hosted in Frankfurt, Germany
$4/month or $40/year
order link (aff)
no aff
Chimera from Servarica is your friend here. Its in Canada but have good pings to eu and us so its in the middle. For 5 bucks you have 2tb hdd disk + nvme, good ram and decent cpu for storage. Check their thread i posted yabs not long ago.
Hey @fijxu,
Read your Deluxhost complaint - 15 MiB/s on a "storage" VPS is rough. Our EPYC Configurator in Eygelshoven, NL is on NVMe RAID 1, so disk speeds won't be your bottleneck:
Above your current $4.75 but it's NVMe at proper speeds and traffic is genuinely unlimited.
