High-bay storage dedis — 16TB×4 minimum, JBOD, unmetered 1G, private LAN, scaling
Hi all,
I run a self-hosted video platform and need to keep adding bulk storage.
Per box
Minimum 4× 16TB HDD — but the more drive bays, the better. High-bay chassis
(8 / 12 / 16-bay, or more) strongly preferred.32GB+ RAM (more welcome for higher-bay boxes)
Any modest CPU — these are storage/serving nodes, transcoding happens elsewhere
1Gbps port, unmetered or very high bandwidth
IPv4
Please tell me explicitly if you can or cannot do this — it decides my architecture.
Content policy
- Please state your DMCA / content-takedown stance clearly (offshore / lenient a plus).
Location
- EU or US
Also welcome
- If your DC also offers standalone storage servers AND Intel 12th-gen+ i9
dedicated servers (I run transcode nodes too — iGPU QuickSync / VAAPI matters to me),
I'd love to hear about those as well. Being able to source both storage and transcode
boxes from the same provider/DC is a big plus.
Long-term recurring & scaling customer. Please PM or reply with: specs, bandwidth policy
(any real TB cap behind "unmetered"?), private-LAN-between-boxes capability, and your
DMCA / content stance. Thanks!

@NetDynamics24 has a few high-cap dedis: https://www.netdynamics24.com/client/order.php?step=1&productGroup=18 (no-aff)
@jayjay can get you sorted with a DMCA ignored NL dedicated server.
Thanks for the mention!
@Croak I've DM'd you.
