My suggestion is to get Dreamhost (500GB, 5TB transfer) and buy this for a 2-year time. Enter the promo code "5050" to get $50 bucks off, making this a $150 for 2 years hosting plan that runs svn and you'll never run out of diskspace.


DON'T use Dreamhost.

I once had my SVN with them; you have no control over availability - and availability wasn't good, in my experience.


+1 for NO to Dreamhost. Hands down the worst web host out there. Go for a cheap VPS like Slicehost and roll your own. You have control over everything, and they have rock solid uptime.


+1 for slicehost - rock solid


Also, if it's not "website relate" (as in, the website you're using Dreamhost to host), Dreamhost wants to charge you 20 cents/gig per month extra.


ah, i did not know that. If you want the cheapest of the cheap they're your friend but it would appear that there's a good reason for that! I've been using vpslink.com to run my own VPS with SVN and all the rest. I've heard lots of great things about slicehost too.


Yep, horrible downtime. Stay away from Dreamhost. We use Beanstalkapp.com, no complaints so far.
