OpenMetal 3 x Storage Large V3, $ 3,175.20/mo. on Linux/Windows Cloud

3 x Storage Large V3 is a Ceph storage cluster built on 3 Storage Large V3 servers and tuned for high-capacity object, block, and file storage workloads. It provides about 330 TiB of usable capacity at 85% hardware utilization using 2/1 erasure coding with roughly 66.67% efficiency. The design pairs 4 x 4TB NVMe cache drives with 12 x 18TB HDDs on each node, plus a separate 512GB boot disk, so read and write hot spots can stay on fast flash while the bulk of the data sits on large-capacity spinning media. Each server uses 2 x Intel Xeon Silver 4314 processors and 256GB of RAM, giving the cluster strong CPU headroom for Ceph services and erasure-coding work. Included network capacity is 2160TB of egress per month and 20Gbps connectivity per server, with fair-egress pricing only after the included transfer pool is exhausted. The quoted price is as low as $3,175.20/month and reflects US location pricing with a 5-year agreement and base support; European pricing varies and assisted management can be added. The cluster is positioned for limited-size deployments where a compact starting footprint is still expected to deliver enterprise Ceph behavior, and it can be used as primary storage, large-scale S3-compatible object storage, or a replication target for disaster recovery.

Ceph storage clusters run on dedicated OpenMetal infrastructure with root control and room to scale from a starter deployment into multi-petabyte footprints. The platform supports object, block, and file storage, S3-compatible access, custom Ceph versions on request, and replication to another OpenMetal cloud or another Ceph environment for recovery planning. Billing is monthly for stand-alone storage clusters, ingress is not charged, and traffic beyond the included allowance follows the OpenMetal fair-egress model using 95th percentile billing with optional guaranteed bandwidth plans from sales. OpenMetal Central is the web portal for account, billing, and support workflows, with ticketing, emergency escalation, documentation access, and direct contact paths to the support team. Base support is included, assisted management is optional, and a 30-day money-back guarantee is available for customers evaluating fit.
