How much does a storage VPS cost per month?

How is each price set?

Each plan is priced from a dated survey, not from a margin target. According to Coffervale's survey of 2 November 2026, which read the public prices of 70 hosting providers, only 10 of the 18 storage VPS sellers that take crypto without an ID document had a plan in Europe that could be ordered and paid by the month; all of them are in what is the least expensive storage VPS per TB right now?. For every capacity we name one of their plans as the reference: a storage VPS with at least as much disk, and of those the one with the smallest monthly price. Our 12-month price sits at least 25% under it, and the month-to-month price is the one that the 30% yearly discount brings back to it. We do not claim to be the cheapest at every size or term: month to month, every plan costs more than its reference, $2.37 for Clay against $2.22.

The full rule, with the hosts that met it and the ones that did not, reads: On the 12-month term, each plan is priced at least 25% a month under a named reference plan (prices read on 2 November 2026): Silt against DeluxHost's “STORAGE-1” at $1.66 a month; Clay against DeluxHost's “STORAGE-2” at $2.22 a month; Shale against DeluxHost's “STORAGE-3” at $4.46 a month; Granite against DeluxHost's “STORAGE-5” at $10.04 a month; Bedrock against Hostbrr's “Hybrid 8TB” at $22.34 a month. To count as comparable, a plan has to be a storage VPS with at least as much disk, run in Europe, shown in stock and billed one month at a time, at a host that accepts crypto and requires no ID document at signup. At least one such plan was on sale at 10 hosts (VSYS Host, HostSailor, Privex, HostHatch, Hostbrr, NolimitHost, LiteServer, Cherry Servers, DeluxHost, PrivateAlps), and for each capacity the reference is the comparable plan with the smallest monthly price among them. Also not compared: BuyVM (every storage plan shown out of stock); MivoCloud (storage plans orderable only outside Europe); Senko Digital (every storage plan shown out of stock); VPSLab (no location stated for its storage plans); AlphaVPS (every storage plan shown out of stock); InterServer (storage plans orderable only outside Europe); RamNode (no location stated for its storage plans); VPSDime (every storage plan shown out of stock). Euro prices are converted at 1 EUR = 1.1172 USD (ECB, 30 October 2026); Hostbrr prices exclude VAT.

What does a longer rental length save?

Thirty percent on the 12-month term, ten percent on 3 months and twenty on 6. Rent for 1 month, 3 months (10% off), 6 months (20% off) or 12 months (30% off): a longer term costs the monthly price times its months, less its discount, rounded down to the cent (Clay: $6.39 for 3 months, $11.37 for 6 months, $19.90 for 12 months). Each renewal repeats the same term at the price of your order unless you pick another term for the next renewal in your dashboard.

For the 1 TB Clay plan that means $2.37 for one month, $2.13 a month on 3 months, $1.89 on 6 months and $1.66 on 12 months. A server you keep for backups usually runs for years, so the yearly term is the one most of our prices are quoted on. No setup fee: an order and each renewal cost exactly the price of the chosen term.

What do you get on every plan?

The plans differ in disk, vCPU and RAM; everything else is the same.

• Storage: Every plan stores your data on hard disks (HDD) chosen for capacity, not speed: they suit backups, archives and file sync, not databases or heavy random reads and writes. We publish no speed or IOPS figure we cannot back.
• Network: Each server has one IPv4 address and an IPv6 /64 on a 1 Gbit/s port, with a monthly traffic quota of 2 TB plus 2 TB per TB stored: 3 TB for Silt, 4 TB for Clay, 6 TB for Shale, 10 TB for Granite, 18 TB for Bedrock. Past the quota the port runs at 100 Mbit/s until the next period begins; nothing extra is billed.
• Access: Root logs in over SSH. Paste a public key at checkout and password login stays off; leave the field empty and the team sets a temporary root password, shown in your dashboard, that you replace at your first login.
• Encryption: KVM gives your server its own kernel, so you can put LUKS on the data disk or run ZFS with native encryption, and the keys never leave you. For backups, encrypt on your own machine before upload (Borg, restic and Kopia all do it), so the server only ever holds ciphertext.
• Systems: Debian 13, Debian 12, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, AlmaLinux 10, Rocky Linux 10. Linux only: Debian, Ubuntu, AlmaLinux or Rocky Linux. Windows is not offered.
• Cities: Amsterdam (Netherlands), Bucharest (Romania) and Chișinău (Moldova): every plan in every city, at the same price.

How far 1 TB goes is set out in where can I get a VPS with 1 TB of storage?, and the 2 to 8 TB plans in which storage VPS gives the most terabytes for the money?.

What is not in the price?

A low price per terabyte comes from plain hardware and a short list of services. Before you order, know what you are not buying:

• Backups: We take no backup of your server and keep no copy of your data anywhere else, so what sits on a Coffervale storage VPS should be one of your copies, never the only one. Disk redundancy keeps a server running through a failed drive; it does not undo a deletion, ransomware or a lost account, so it is not a backup.
• Growing in place: To grow, order a larger plan and copy your data across with rsync or zfs send; resizing a running server in place is not offered at launch.
• Very large volumes: Bedrock, at 8 TB, is the largest storage VPS we sell. Past that size a dedicated storage server, a whole machine full of disks, is the better fit, and we say so plainly rather than stretch a VPS.
• Instant setup: A person on the team creates your server once the payment is confirmed, so it is not instant; the dashboard tracks it until the IP address shows up.
• A free trial: No free trial: the smallest plan, Silt (500 GB), costs $1.77 for one month, or $1.24 a month on the 12-month term.

What that means for a backup plan is spelled out in how do I use a VPS for off-site backups?.
