I’m using the bandwidth on my hosted server and running rclone on it from cloud to cloud. The hosted server has 100mb, and my local machine only has 5mb up. So, once I get the data up, I work from the hosted machine. Since my upload from the home is such crap, it’s another reason why I’ll be keeping my amazon cloud, if only for backup storage.
Hi! Can I ask you which service you’re using for your hosted server? I’m using vpscheap.net and it isn’t stellar, but it is indeed cheap and has unmetered bandwidth.
I’m getting mine from kimsufi. The one I’ve got is hosted in Canada and claims to cost $25/month. Turns out that’s $25 Canadian, so it’s only $19 US. The bandwidth is unmetered, but the connection is 100mb.
Thanks! I’ll have a look at kimsufi.

So glad I didn’t rush out and subscribe to Amazon Cloud.
Perhaps it’s time they allow us to use personal NAS as the cloud space. I have a good internet speed and a big HDD, it would be great if I could just plug it into my router and not worry about paying fees.
why do you even need amazon cloud at that point
I posted this in another thread, but seems useful here as well:
For those looking for an unlimited storage option - consider checking out your college alumni e-mail options. My school apparently converted over to gmail as their provider at some point since I graduated (10+ years ago) and I was able to go back and get an alumni e-mail address that includes unlimited drive storage. There are reports of people over at https://www.reddit.com/r/DataHoarder/ of people with 100’s of TB’s stored in Google Drive this way.
I’ve only just started uploading myself so no idea how it will play out, especially if/when I get an invite to Plex Cloud and start using that if it will draw unwanted attention to my account, but it might be a good free option for those who can get it.
Has stopped sending invitations ?. I really want to try it.
