J E F F4 Whatta Ya Think About Dat? Premium Member join:2004-04-01 Kitchener, ON	J E F F4 Premium Member 2013-Mar-15 10:08 pm [Extreme Plus] Why not 1PB? Now, not that I plan, or anyone else should plan, but unlimited is limited to about 977 TB's of download. Why not the extra 23 TB and just do 1 PB? Doesn't it make a difference? Will anyone even hit close to that? Even with a 100meg connection, you'd hit 26TB after 30 days, running none-stop, 24/7/31....

I did the math and it is 1 petabyte. 1 petabyte divided by 1024 equals 977 terabytes.

I do not think many servers can fill the needs of 150mbps throughput... »www.newsrover.com/images ··· peed.gif (just an example of how you can actually top out)

Most well hosted machines can push you 150Mbps without issue. We have micro instances on AWS that will push 100Mbps over SCP/SSH and medium/large instances that head well over 150 with SpeedBoost. Google Compute, App Engine, RackSpace, SquareSpace, etc, etc will all be competitive with this. Some of the older, bigger hosting/co-lo companies (Verizon Business comes to mind) will be slower due to their cost structures (it's really expensive to get even a 10Mbps full duplex cage at Verizon Business in Canada) but this really isn't the norm these days.

Allow me to replace the word "can"... with "don't" Your point is well taken, but until everyone switches to more upload "speeds", having 150+ download speeds is overkill (esp. when considering the cost of having that "service". I cannot wait for the day that 150+d/150+u is the norm
