Are there any dedicated hosting that can offer me unlimited storage

Could be that it is listed in the same place with Banks that give you unlimited amount of money. 😉
 
Check out hostgator.com I've been with them for 2+ years and honestly, the service just gets better and better. Great uptime, good communication & support from the company, even has online tech chat for most issues.
 
"Unlimited*" is a common marketing tactic these days. (* - fine print: um, it's not really)

Do you really believe that you can pay a finite, small amount of money and receive an infinite resource?

People sign up for an "unlimited" service, and then come back and complain when their "unlimited" service turns out to have fine print that means they get the boot if they try to actually use a lot of it. There are two parties at fault in that transaction, IMO. An "unlimited" deal means somebody's not getting a good deal. In the long run, do you think you're going to get a successful business to keep losing money on you?

Find a provider who sells what capacity you really want at a price you're willing to pay. An explicitly agreed upon deal is going to work out a lot better for both parties in the long run. Support your local honest provider. They've already proven they're better.
 
yah well storage isn't cheap. good reliable storage.

dreamhost has great unreliable storage 🙂 i think i uploaded 40GB of backup to have it lost.

pretty awesome
 
ChAoTiCpInOy, S3 is fairly expensive in my opinion, has basically no guarantees/warranties of anything, my personal experience of Amazon's customer service is very negative, and other people's experiences of S3 and their cloud services are mixed at best (reliability and customer service, I hear a lot more negative than positive, but a lot of people like the concept). Also, I've seen their facilities and I know how the sausage is made, so, well, that made a strong impression too about whether I'd want them anywhere near my data.

The idea of combining redundant not-quite-reliable hosting providers might not be a bad idea, depending on your requirements.
