I have similar experience with Scaleway for the disks. I have been running a few cheap dedicated ARM/Atom servers there for many years. It seems be a tied to a specific host or model, I have one of the first arm's which has been dead stable, but I have seen disk issues with both my new Atom's and newer ARM's.

I still use them for some non-critical stuff because their cheap dedicated ARM and Atom's give you isolation like a dedicated machine. In combination with a LUKS mount I like to think it's safer against any Meltdown/Rowhammer-like attacks than a shared instance.

But if you want a stable VPS you might have better luck elsewhere.
