    I've bought a storage VPS from Servarica, https://clients.servarica.com/store/black-friday-2023, a Polar Bear deal. Then I mount it as an external Volume. Several apps on my Cloudron then use that for all the data.

      I would love to have a dedicated power horse as a server for my cloudron. But the option to simple restore my cloud server from just an image backup in case of desaster is so much more important. So I decided to stay with my smaller cloud server and use a storagebox for more storage.

          TW, don't do what I did and assume 2 x 512GB SSD in RAID 1 means you'll get 2 x 512GB of actual storage

          Thanks, I know how RAID1 works 🙂

          @jdaviescoates said in SSD needed for Cloudron?:

          But for extra storage you could always add at Storage Box too if need be

          Storage Box from Hetzner?

          Yes, exactly. They make it quite easy to buy one and mount it to your server.

          I use Cloudron with Gandi & Hetzner

            As I can remember I could not use it for Immich to store all my photos / videos.

                I don't think this is affecting Cloudron

                  Ah, yeah, I think you might be right.

                  I just had a look and the storage box tab on my dedicated server and it says:

                  To get space for depositing your server's backups please order a Storage Box which will be linked to this server.

                    yes, ordered a dedicated server with 2x4TB HDDs and saw this option also. I will use Storage Box for backups then

                          That is good to hear. There are others reading this thread, though.
