[Request] 16TB+ Storage VPS/Dedi – 10Gbps, 100TB/mo, ~$200/2yr (Black Friday?)

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a budget storage VPS or dedicated server with the following specs:

  • Type: KVM VPS or dedicated server
  • CPU: 4 cores or better
  • RAM: 16GB+
  • Storage: 16TB+ usable (HDD / SSD / NVMe)
  • Network: 10Gbps shared port preferred (5Gbps acceptable)
  • Traffic: 100TB/month preferred
  • Disk I/O: Decent random I/O performance
  • IPv4: 1 address
  • DDoS protection: Not required
  • Location: Europe preferred, but open to other locations
  • Budget: Around $200/2 years (~$8.33/month)
  • Billing: Biennial preferred

I'm mainly looking for large storage capacity, decent disk performance, and good network connectivity.

Special promotions, clearance deals, and older hardware are all welcome.

Is this budget realistic? Does anyone know of any deals close to these specs?

Thanks!

    Haha, that's why I'm asking. Black Friday might surprise us. 😄

    I'm also open to slightly higher offers, depending on the specs and overall value.

    That's quite expensive. I've seen similar specs for much less, so I'm hoping Black Friday might bring some better deals.

    I know this is low end talk but some of these requests the provider may as well pay you to have the servers too.

  • It's 2026 now, bro,Seriously?

    You can share the deals or it not exist. But I believe atleast 1-2$ per tb or 16-32$/m alone.
    Electric cost money, and provider have mouth to feed

  • I understand it's an ambitious budget, but I'm just looking for exceptional deals, not regular market pricing.

  • You asked a question.

    Is this budget realistic?

    NO

    good luck without getting your data sold and get used to buy drgs

  • Missing requirement:

    OP forgot to ask for fully managed service and a dedicated technician.

    Just the bandwidth and power alone would eat your entire budget

    The community will be extremely lucky if hosts can repeat last years deals, nevermind new ones. 16tb drives are $500 in the US?

  • Thanks everyone for the feedback!

    I understand that $200/2 years is a very ambitious target, especially for 16TB+ storage.

    Just to clarify, $200 is my ideal budget, not a hard limit. I'm willing to pay more depending on the specs and overall value.

    The 10Gbps port and 100TB monthly traffic are preferences, not strict requirements. I don't need managed services either.

    I'm mainly looking for exceptional Black Friday deals, clearance offers, or older hardware at a good price.

    If anyone knows of any interesting deals, I'd appreciate the suggestions. Thanks!

  • rpqurpqu Member

    $1/TB-M if you're lucky and get transfer
    $2/TB-M on loss-making flash sale
    $3/TB-M paper-thin margin if the host purchase disk earlier this year
    $4/TB-M the bare minimum when disk costs $60/TB

    Probably $1,500 for two years, and with a lot of luck, just to get at least the HD

    Maybe look for one of those OVH 4x4TB servers and hope you get lucky with a 10gbps port

    Thanked by 3tux sonder zejjnt
  • After looking into the pricing a bit more, I think $400–500 for 2 years would be a more realistic target.

    I'm mainly interested in storage VPS deals, but dedicated servers are welcome too. I'm flexible on bandwidth and port speed, depending on the overall value.

    Hopefully Black Friday will bring some interesting offers!
