In November 2026, the cheapest terabyte of SSD storage on a virtual private server (VPS) among the 45 hosts tracked by HostingSift was Contabo's Storage VPS 30, offering a 1 TB SSD for €11.20 per month (equivalent to $12.88 per TB). This made Contabo the leader among the tracked hosts, with the median across 629 SSD and NVMe VPS plans from 37 hosts being $279 per TB.
However, the price per TB for SSD storage does not necessarily decrease as the overall storage capacity increases. Among VPS plans with at least 1 TB of SSD, the median price per TB was $416, while plans with less than 50 GB of SSD storage had a median price of $261 per TB. This indicates that hosts size disk storage based on RAM, with the median plan carrying 16.7 GB of disk space for every GB of memory.
