You could get uncloudy and go with a provider with unmetered bandwidth and then use their storage slabs which present as block devices up to 10TB. So you could string together a PV/VG with eight 10TB slabs on a single server.

I’d suspect the storage cost of this approach might even be similar or less than AWS glacier storage..

BuyVM has been around for a long time and very stable and excellent reputation. You’ll find that your costs would be much lower if you’d “uncloud” (I’m obviously assuming that you are using AWS or a cloud, but maybe not!)
