I am using frantech.ca for more than a year, and only got a couple hours of downtime. One day a RAID disk died, my server went offline for 4 hours, but I haven't lost any data.
And they are cheap. I managed to get a 256MB KVM VPS 250GB Dedicated Space 2500GB Transfer for under USD 6/mo. If anyone is interested, signing in using https://my.frantech.ca/aff.php?aff=626 will give me one free month of hosting.
