Hey,
Is anyone aware of somewhere I could rent a large amount of physical storage (either drives, external RAID or a storage server) storage very short term (like for a week) I could use to dump my file server to, and then restore it back, during a rebuild and reformat?
I've seen some corporate services, but their costs are ridiculous to the point where I could build a server from scratch for the cost of renting it for one month.
I imagine that there would have to be a demand for a service like this. I found one in the UK, called "rent-a-raid" but that's a little far away.
Is anyone aware of a service like this?
Thanks,
Matt
