We are all just trying to...
A. Understand exactly what your after
B. Thinking on your behalf of possible alternatives
With the above in mind I think I can attempt to assist to move in lieu of your directions if you choose to help me out there...
In short what exactly are you seeking for?
Some examples that may suits you are...
A. Cheap storage in general
B. Cheap dedicated unit with large storage
C. ARM specific servers
etc etc etc
ARM Machines should be cheaper, I know SoYouStart used to offer these for extremely cheap a few years ago. They have since been removed.
I’d much prefer a dedicated machine over anything shared, and would need at least 1TiB, preferably about 4TiB.
Yes, intel celeron and pentium processors are an option. Ideally the TDP would be around .5W-15W, if that helps you any as another pointer.
RAM is not a concern. 1-2GB is perfectly fine.
There is zero reason to pay anything more than $20/mo for something like this.

I totally agrees with you, you can totally find a 1TB drive at the bare min for 20 bucks a month or less on a Atom/Celeron dedicated unit. I just don't remember any specific providers featuring 1TB drives.
Kimsufi has a pretty good storage server, but the limitations are pretty bad. 100Mbps is OK. I'd prefer something with a little bit faster of a uplink though

Agreed, I would much prefers a BW cap on 1Gbps instead in those instances.
It is a Minecraft forum... I doubt a lot of people here understand the differences between the architectures.
ARM Servers,
I know Ampere makes ARM Dedicated servers, the cheapest thing you will get is probably gonna be paying for the server then Colocating it yourself, and the cost of Colo alone would be outside your budget.
Why does it specifically need to be a Dedicated Server? It looks more like a VM would work just fine...
As I stated previously AWS has ARM-based EC2 Instances is there any issue with those?
It looks like it would meet all your requirements, I know AWS goes up to at least 40Gbps if you are willing to pay for it. You can do network-attached storage (Buckets or whatever the AWS equivalent is). Of course plenty of locations.
You said your budget is $10-$15 a Month, I highly doubt you will ever find a dedicated server at that price point.
Good Luck,
Raaj

It's possible, it's very cheap but it's plausible. Generally, I would assume ARM servers would be a lot cheaper. You can find the chassis for relatively cheap too.

You can, I been surfing web hosting industry stuffs and there are sales and such for Atom/Celeron dedicated units which may fulfill the OP core requirements.
They don't strictly requires ARM dedis but they thought that they would be good cost effective option due to the cheapness of the power, chassis, SoCs, etc.
However due to the lack of viability, it's probably ideal for them to look at typical dedis which are on these sales and such.
Frank one 2TB drive i3 3220 with 1Gbps uplink can be had at the Xmas rate of 15 USD a month. You can grab it over at http://www.wholesaleinternet.net/cart/?id=219 coupled with this coupon CHRISTMAS2020 . Also happy holidays.
