I’m trying to start out self-hosting and was looking for some good servers. I have a budget of ~100 USD and am in the US. I was initially going to get some type of raspberry pi but they seem to always be sold out here

Thank you for your comment, however, considering that renting a VPS with similar specs would cost twice, if not more, for a single year, I believe that factoring in a second drive for RAID configuration and a potential UPS (although I would not mind the downtime) is more than possible.
Hey, we can continue if you would like. Downtime is not a problem, the problem is sudden cut of electricity of a machine. That can cause write issues on disks and not to mention HW failure. And 2TB volumes in cloud are a pricing problem if you need them. But for 99% of cases there is no need for it. You can use R2 or B2 which costs ~250eur/year at 2TB Also depend what you store there. On these storages you should not store illegal data, at least not unencrypted.
