On: Ask HN: Rent servers with slow CPU, low mem, cheap bandwidth but big disk.

I have not found any virtual with storage cheaper than Amanzon/Google (0.10 $/month/GB).

you can find "backup" VMs for cheap but:

  - these are typically OpenVZ (can't pick your kernel options)

  - very busy and slow (they meant to be for backup only.

http://ovh.com has physicals at around 40$/month with 2 x 1 GB disks.
