Given how much storage costs have cratered, this confuses me.

I'm not prepared to quadruple or quintuple my current yearly budget for hosting, I'd like to not spend more than $50/month.


Talk to the reps and see what kind of deal they can give you. I bet all 3 (m3, mojo and vacares) can each come up with something that handles what you need at a price you can deal with. Just my experience there.
