Needing Server With Major Storage

    I need a server/vps with MAJOR storage. I am only going to use it for AutoDJ for an online radio which is going to feed it to the streaming server so bandwidth does not matter. 2 mbps unmetered should be more than fine since it is only going to be 48 kbps + SSH. Processor could be a Pentium 2 or even a 486, I don't care. It needs to be as cheap as possible and multiple choices for storage (120, 160, 250, 300, 500 ,750 GB or 1 TB). Thanks!

    You cant find a cheap host that offers alot of space. You will probably end up with a reseller.

    I think BW does matter and major factor even if you are feeding to the streaming server.

    You would be calling the files from your server to be streamed and thats where BW come in.

    you wouldn't be even needing to get a server if BW is not an issue because the only way it can be done is your streaming server allow file storage.

    *I maybe wrong on conveying what you need.

    Actually you are wrong. The server is only going to feed the streaming data to the streaming server only when a DJ is not online.

    I have no prefered location. Could be in China for all I care. Also, please LIST all the upgrades for the hard drive.

    I'd recommend VolumeDrive.com
    Celeron D 2.66 Ghz
    512M DDR2
    10 Mbps unmetered
    120G disk
    $45

    $15 for each extra 250G, which means you can get 870G with $90/mo.

    If you want know more option, you can compare them at http://www.hostingmatrix.org/
