| Free tier | HDD block volumes attached to a Danbo VM, Romania only. Initial beta run ~20 TB capacity total across all customers. unit TB; metered on unstated |
|---|---|
| Price | $5.62/TB/mo flat (€5). At 5 TB: €25 = $28.09/mo. At 20 TB: €100 = $112.34/mo. No volume break. The caveats (20 TB total supply, price flagged to rise, provider's own no-SLA warning) make this a poor primary and a reasonable third replica. |
| Per-object cap | 20 TB cap (20000000000000 bytes) |
| Retention | not stated |
| Egress | Not published as a per-plan number. The model is a VM plus attachable block, with the VM carrying the traffic allowance. Treat as unknown/unmetered-by-usage rather than free — this is a one-person operation and the beta explicitly has no published egress schedule. |

| Limits |
per-object-cap: none. **Total supply is ~20 TB for the entire beta.** Price explicitly flagged as likely to rise: 'This price will probably increase a bit for future restocks'. |
| Binding | per-object-cap the per-object cap sets the shard size and therefore the object count; it bounds the total more tightly than any headline quota |
| Interface | rest, sftp, ssh, rclone block + sftp/ssh (Danbo), rest api |
| Tooling | rclone over SFTP, Kyun API v2 (api.kyun.sh/endpoints) |
| Composes with | Can be grown while attached, renamed in the UI, and switched between local SSD and Bricks 'with a single click'. Designed for media storage rather than hot reads. |
| Reliability | The most honest reliability disclosure and simultaneously the worst track record. The provider's own post-Mesa writeup describes a migration that 'took about 5 days' with intermittent unreachability, a multi-week server-delivery failure, and states plainly: 'do NOT use Kyun for anything that earns you money without a verified, up to date backup that you can roll over to at a moment's notice'. Also notes customers 'reported us to the cops'. No identity documents required — a rare property here. |
