>Hetzner's 1 Gbps port speed makes it impossible to transfer the data in less than three weeks

But don't you have that spread over 120 servers?

Each server has a 1 Gbps connection. Some servers are storing more than average, some have 160 TB. That's already 2 weeks at full line rate. But I also need to keep serving user traffic. I can't take the site offline for a month for a data migration, that would completely kill my business.

I'm guessing you're banned because you have such amounts of data/servers and push a substantial amount of bandwidth under the free "1gbps" card for each (even if the cache layer handles most requests directly)

perharps if you moved all servers to 10G and payed for the egress over 20Tb they would reconsider your account?

They still unreliable pulling stuff like this but difficult to find these hardware options off the shelf, ready for order, at this rpice

I considered that and even suggested it to them, but they ignore all my remarks and keep repeating that I have two months to leave.
