Hello widget,
Those are the type of deals I would stay far away from. It is impossible for a host to offer that package, that's if they expect you to use it.
For example, the cheapest 500 GB HD will cost about $100. Therefore, based on 4/month, it will take that host 25 months to make the money back just on the hard drive alone.
Moreover, there are many other things in the package which makes it simply impossible. These deal are clearly based on you not using the resources that comes with the package.
My recommendation would be to stay far away, and find an honest that doesn't oversell so much. Just for point of clarification, I don't think it is so bad to oversell, however, I think that when the deal is this good, you are only asking for problems once you attemp to use the resources.
Respectfully,

Probably good for small low traffic sites that don't eat much resources. I bet if you tried to use what they promised though your account would be terminated.

Yeah throw a site at them that uses 1000 GB a month in BW and the resources that would come along with it and you will be looking for a new host real quick. Been there and done that.
For small sites Im sure they are good though if you have been with them that long with no real issues.
