Where can I rent a storage dedicated server with 100 TB of disk?

Does "100 TB" mean disk or bandwidth?

On a Basalthold hold, 100 TB is disk: ten hard drives of 10 TB each. Many listings titled "100TB dedicated server" sell 100 TB of monthly traffic on a small SSD. Read the drive line before the headline.

Traffic is a separate figure. Hold 100 includes 120 TB per 30 days on a 1 Gbit/s port, and Hold 160 200 TB per 30 days. Every server has a 1 Gbit/s port with a monthly traffic allowance (Hold 24 40 TB, Hold 40 60 TB, Hold 100 120 TB, Hold 160 200 TB), one dedicated IPv4 address and an IPv6 /64; going past the allowance never triggers an automatic bill.

Raw capacity is not usable capacity. A pool with two parity drives keeps eight drives' worth of data out of ten. OpenZFS calls that approximately (N − P) × X, since small records cost extra parity. Disk tools also show tebibytes: 80 TB is about 72.8 TiB.

Who else rents a server with 100 TB or more?

Only one other host rents a 100 TB storage server to crypto buyers without ID, in stock and month by month: OffshoreDedi. The rest of the 100 TB market either takes no crypto, does not say, is out of stock, or states no IPv4 address. Cheaper terabytes exist at Hetzner and at two US sellers, as the table shows.

How long does it take to fill 100 TB over a 1 Gbit/s port?

At a full 1 Gbit/s, writing 100 TB takes about 9 days and 6 hours. The port moves 125 MB per second, so 100 TB needs 800,000 seconds. These are calculations, not measurements:

• 80 TB (Hold 100 in RAIDZ2): 7 days 10 hours.
• 100 TB: 9 days 6 hours.
• 128 TB (Hold 160 in RAIDZ2): 11 days 20 hours.
• 160 TB: 14 days 20 hours.

Real copies run slower than line rate. The sending side often sets the pace: a 100 Mbit/s home upload needs about 93 days for 100 TB. Seed the first copy from a fast source, then send only changes. Rebuilding a failed 16 TB drive is a separate wait, covered in How long does a RAID 6 or RAIDZ2 rebuild take?

Should I pick Hold 100 or Hold 160?

Pick by the usable space you need in a year, plus room to grow.

• Hold 100: Intel Xeon Silver 4210R, 10 cores / 20 threads, 128 GB DDR4 ECC. Suits 40 to 70 TB of backups, such as a Proxmox Backup Server datastore.
• Hold 160: AMD EPYC 7302P, 16 cores / 32 threads, 128 GB DDR4 ECC. Same drive count, bigger drives, more cores for compression and S3 gateways. It also has the smallest price per TB of the four holds: $3.50/TB.

Both come with 128 GB DDR4 ECC. Whether that is enough for your pool is worked out in How much RAM does ZFS need for a 100 TB pool? Prices for all four holds, per term, sit on the pricing page.

Where do other hosts beat Basalthold at 100 TB?

On price per terabyte, on maximum size and on speed of setup. Check them first:

• Price: a Hetzner auction server with 10 × 16 TB cost $1.72 per raw TB. NetDynamics24 listed $1.30. Neither states that it takes crypto.
• Size: Hetzner's SX295 carries 308 TB. No hold goes past 160 TB, and LowEndTalk buyers ask for 150 to 200 TB.
• Ports: OffshoreDedi lists a 10 Gbps port on its storage line. Every hold has 1 Gbit/s.
• Setup: hosts state a median of 24 hours. A person on the team prepares the machine after your payment is confirmed, within 72 hours, so it is not instant; the dashboard shows its progress until the IP address appears.

What no other 100 TB offer combined on 2 November 2026: crypto, no ID at any point, stock, and a monthly term.
