Got a client who wants 25Gb of disk space for some multimedia work.

Any suggestions for hosts that could offer this as well as bandwidth and streaming suitability?

I can offer a VPS server with that disk space and bandwidth. Cost is upwards of £25 /month though so maybe prohibitive.

I'm guessing you didn't look as far as the VPS page then?

I'd recommend Dedi. We use them for our managed server and they're excellent. They do VPSs too http://dedi.co.uk/services/virtual/

tsohost? I can, I've never had any problems with them. I don't even recall any of my sites going down at all in the past two years.

I have put one client (that I didn't fancy hosting/reselling for myself) onto their shared hosting, on the recommendation of sickpup.  Although there's been no need for support (no downtime or problems so far), the communication I have had with/from them has been quick and sounded knowledgable enough.

Although I've not yet had cause to take them up on their offer, they can also offer the same cloud package at half the cost for half the resources... just ask nicely
