HostHatch, an established VPS provider that has multiple locations across the world, has recently launched storage VPS plans in the Hong Kong location starting from $5 monthly for 1 TB. It’s extremely rare to find storage VPSs in Hong Kong, especially at an affordable price like HostHatch.
To order a storage VPS plan in Hong Kong, you can go to their control panel and select the Hong Kong location and order your preferred storage plan from the menu. With storage VPSs available in the same data center in Hong Kong, you can now connect a compute VPS to a storage one via a private network for better local transfer speeds. You can test their network speed here: http://lg.hkg.hosthatch.com.
According to HostHatch, they said storage VPSs in other locations, such as Singapore and Australia will follow soon.
The yabs result below is from HostHatch 2TB storage VPS plan on the 1st gen EPYC which is powerful enough for the use case. Thanks to the fanshilin user on LowEndTalk. If you would like to give HostHatch a try, please consider using my invite link.
