Don’t think about the speeds advertised by providers, you’ll never come close to them. You seem to require a media server, so give more importance to storage.
From my research comparing HostingBy, SeedHost and Ultra.cc - HostingBy has the highest €/TB rate except for the 1TB box which is ironically the highest €/TB rate
Here’s the Google Sheet if you’re interested Ignore the remarks and INR part, I’m Indian so wanted to see what I would end up paying
I will add on more providers at some point, but these 3 are the big names with decent prices and support.
As for your other problem of app selection, I don’t think you’ll find any of those in most providers natively (except for Transmission). You can request them, but its not a quick process. Instead of that, try installing them yourself. Even without root, it shouldn’t be impossible, the only thing that may be annoying is you may not be able to setup reverse proxy so you’ll need to access those services with http://ip:port
I believe what you’re looking for is Remote Path Mapping, read this guide and see if it fits your situation - https://trash-guides.info/Radarr/Radarr-remote-path-mapping/
Sonarr should be the same setup process. Essentially, you want your arr’s to be able to see and access the files on your seedbox. Best way that I’ve found to do this is
sshfs
or rclone’ssftp
. Mount your seedbox’s download folder on your Plex server with sshfs/sftpSince you’re also moving the files from your seedbox to your Plex server with synching, I imagine a setup involving
mergerfs
will work too. Basically, you mount your seedbox download folder to your Plex server, use mergerfs to merge it with your local Plex server’s location that Sonarr/Radarr imports it to - point Sonarr, Radarr and the Plex to the merged location. When the files are being moved by Syncthing, all your services will still think they’re in the same location so it doesn’t get confused.If you want to go that route, you can use the Google Drive guide - https://web.archive.org/web/20220508210909/https://wikiold.servarr.com/Cloud_Setup and change it a bit so it works for your configuration. Ignore the parts about encrypting and the nightly move script, Syncthing does that for you. And instead of mounting a Google drive remote, you will be mounting your seedbox through sshfs/sftp
