Is there interest for storage vms in helsinki?

SelfHoster

This is in no way a sales post, but i do have a almost idle big hetzner storage server in Helsinki, and i dont really want to get rid of it, as i am storing alot of data on it.

CPU
Intel Xeon W-2245
RAM
128 GB
Drives
10 x 16.0 TB Enterprise HDD
2 x 960 GB Datacenter SSD

Wondering if there is a market to rent out some NATed storage vms, and what you would need / pay in such a situation. This is in no way a sales post - I am just trying to figure out if i should just get rid of it, or if i can fund some of the running costs though some sales on it.

Monthly price as of right now is around £90. That is why i dont want to get rid of it..

If uncompressed, they total 998MB.
Inserted to LevelDB for serving, they occupy 1669MB on each repository server.

Original files and encoded+packetized+compressed archives are stored in HDD, one copy on my home router, the other copy in LevelOneServers Dallas.
Repository servers use SSD or better, one replica in Evolution Host Roubaix, the other replica in Nexril Dallas.

Feel like while you have a great deal its difficult to resell as your not a provider, brand new account and we got no clue if server would be terminated unexpectedly. Main thing about basically backup storage is you gotta know it's gonna be there when you need it and with this ya don't.

i have interest, the price must be right.

Depending on the price, I might be interested in this.

Something like £15 for a dedicated 16tb hdd vps? NAT that is.

Lemme know if someone is interested in such a config. I have 1 person who wants this. If i get 1 or 2 more, we can work something out

ehab

@SelfHoster , come up with 1TB or 2TB disk config?

SelfHoster

£2 per tb.
NAT (ill forward ports you need)
some ram
Some cpu
bw limited to 200mbit

I should also say that the disk speed is lying ALOT. It is ZFS writing zeros to cache with compression enabled. Real life speed is alot lower, 500-600MB/s

CamoYoshi

I'd be down for a yearly commitment or something if that works?

I`ve got a few more spots free if someone want storage vms on this node
