Looking for Cheap SMB Storage in Hetzner Finland, 10-16 TB
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for an SMB Storage Box with 10-16 TB of capacity, physically hosted in a Hetzner data center in Finland.
My target price is no more than €1.30 per TB/month. I’m also fine with committing to a recurring annual subscription if that helps reach this price point.
@NetDynamics24 would fit my requirements, but unfortunately they don’t offer SMB, and SMB support is a must for me.
Hetzner itself offers suitable storage, but their pricing is around €2/TB plus taxes, which comes to roughly €2.30/TB for me. They also don’t offer an annual-payment option with a corresponding discount.
If anyone knows a provider offering this in Hetzner Finland, I’d appreciate any recommendations.

Hetzner storage boxes are about as low as you'll get unless you want to pay for trafic.
1.30eur/tb/mo is pretty unrealistic
why SMB is a must? why can't you use rclone and mount the drive.
or are you interested in something else!!!
You're mistaken, my friend. Such a plan is available from both Pulsed Media and NetDynamics24. The latter, using a 50% discount code.
Because it technically cannot perform the task I need. rclone is only a file-level backup tool, nothing more.
Hetzner Storage Box is explicitly mentioned in my question. It looks like you did not read the question carefully. Please do so.
I did. I'm saying you won't find anything much cheaper than that
I already mentioned the options above that are almost twice as cheap. ND24 offers a 50% discount code for annual subscriptions. Once again, you are not actually reading what I wrote, you are just replying.
can you please explain your task? want to know what exactly SMB provides?
SMB provides a samba dance, rclone does not.
Hope this helps.

Veeam Backup for Windows of this type, which allows you to restore the system to bare hardware.
Why not S3?
You got any S3 recommendation for €1.30/TB?
Just host a smb server on any cheap VPS
Can you point me to the 10-16 TB cheap VPS?

Select Mini-EPYC and you can add up to 10tb hdd block, which comes down to €13 in total. Exactly your €1.3/tb budget. And you get a pretty fast cpu, 4gb ram and 40gb nvme alongside it.
Note: its in Frankfurt, Germany.
With the storage mounted by whatever protocol it offers of course, so the VPS is just a proxy of sorts. Better still would be a small box on the same network as the veeam clients
