heh. you know what's funny? if I had the storage (about 200 TB), I could effectively download about 100 TB for a month on my circuit and not run into overages. that's the nice thing about business class service: no caps. However, if I were to do that, cox would call me up and ask if I am sharing my connection. :) btw, that 100 Tb for a month is a calculated figure based on my current service level and assumes max bandwidth for the download (which in the real world doesn't happen). Still, it made for an interesting math problem. :) Eric from the central offices of the Technomage Guild, theoretic math Dept On Nov 19, 2017, at 12:18 PM, Snyder, Alexander J wrote: > That's what the CSR told me, which is another reason to get it.
