Is my math wrong here? 10 gbps -> 8s per 10 GB -> 800s per 1TB -> 80,000s per 1PB -> 22.3 hrs at full speed for 1 PB?

If you search "1pib/(10 gbps)" on google, you'll get 10.4 days.

An unmetered 10G port at a US data center is ~$1500/mo. Not particularly expensive

800,000s per 1PB, off by a 10 factor

Thanks!

Fully saturated you could transfer a few petabytes per month on a 10gig line.
