Might have to look for a dedicated server, for those specs. I can't see any reseller supplier offering you that.

Let me add...I can't see any reputable reseller supplier offering you that.

Maybe not 80GB, 50GB-80GB... I came across this ad, webhostingbuzz.com -- 20Gb for $25 // Has anyone use them?

You will definately need a dedicated ser to accomplish that!! You can drive yourself crazy looking for one!! I know I did!!

For that price you aren't going to get what you want in any fashion near what you are looking for.
Uptime will not be there and you will lose out in support and other areas.
If you are just starting out is there a reason you need a plan like that?
You would be better off looking for a reputable reseller with a "Reasonable" plan to start with then work your way to a reseller.
You will end up with happier and more loyal clients.

I totally agree with that!! don't pay for bandwidth you do not need off the bat! You do get cleaner cirquitry with a dedicated but that doesn't matter until you get traffic anyways!

If i would to go with "Web Hosting Buzz" webhostingbuzz.com -- and go with their highest plan 20GB storage, would I be able to add 20 GB more when the 20GB is full, using the same account? Or would I have to then move to a dedicated server?
Or
** Where can I find a hosting plan that will allow me to do such a thing?
Thanks guys!!!

They may allow you to scale it more, but if you are just starting out chances are you wont need that much resources for at least a while

How much are they charging you for that package??

You should contact their sales department and ask them .
Also, as other people have started pointing out to you - you are going to have a hard time finding a "reseller" account that offers 80GB of space and 800GB of bandwidth. With that being said, there *are* providers that will offer you "semi-dedicated" (or VPS/VDS) servers with that much space and bandwidth - but probably *not* for $50.00/month.

I belive hostdime has a package that large, going to run you around $100/month though.

Agreed. Chances are if you do find a host offering such costs it will end in heartache as most hosts offering such deals will suspend your site before you can ever use a fraction of it.

While I do hate fraud as much as the last person, it should be noted that the site has been removed... I think that should be noted in that post for other readers.
Also any host is vulnerable to spoofing, porn, spam, phishing etc... no matter how big or small. The real question is what that company does to fix such a problem and in this case the Spoono guys were right on top of it.
