When you need to download every show on Netflix, but don’t have much time
3.14 petabytes in the whole Netflix catalog
x 1000 converts to TB
/ 402 TB per second
= 7.81 seconds
EDIT oh this is Tb, not TB, so
x 8 to convert bit to Byte
= 62.5 seconds
62.5s?! Too slow
Now find a disk that can keep up with those write speeds.
You would use a large cluster of servers all stuffed full of enterprise grade SSDs if you need that kind of write speed.
But my Lord, there is no such force.
Not enough RAID? Insert more RAID!
