When does DO plan to add more storage options?
When does DO plan to add more storage options? I would love to have the ability to have a ownCloud droplet running on the $5/month plan and pay extra for addition backend storage that doesnt need to be on SSD’s.

DreamHost has a good pricing structure for CloudStorage called DreamObjects.
I use it on all of my DO Droplets for backup storage. I think I pay around $2.00 a month for backing up 7 different droplets.
I wrote a little tutorial on how to mount your DreamObjects in an Ubuntu Droplet:

You could use the same setup for Amazon Cloud Storage. I have not tried that though, but similar idea.
