Custom job needed. FTP remote storage.
I can't wait for FTP remote storage feature to be created by UNA because I really need it quickly. Can anyone do this for me now? How much would it cost?

Do you mean that in addition to a Local and Amazon S3 storage options you'd like to have also a FTP based storage?
-
Yes because local servers get filled up too quickly and Amazon S3 isn't priced low enough for a large amount of videos and downloads. Alex T⚜️ planned on adding FTP, Wasabi, and digital ocean spaces, but they put it off to an unknown future date. https://github.com/unaio/una/issues/1896

One of my servers is 40TB and there is only 2TB left. There needs to be a better solution for large sites.

I don't think FTP can work like a storage engine. Because a storage must provide direct URLs to files. With FTP this is possible only by exposing access credentials and making it possible to access any data on a FTP server. Also I don't think that for example video players could properly work with FTP links.
So I believe for such a case it'd better to connect FTP share on a lower level - at a hosting's OS level to not expose FTP credentials and make it possible to seamlessly work with it as if it were a local storage.
