When shipping hard drives beats sending data online
HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART
Welcome to the primitive concept of "Sneakernet." If you need to move a massive amount of data—say, a 100-petabyte server farm—doing it over standard broadband would take decades and probably melt your router. Tech giants like Amazon literally load up armored trucks called "Snowmobiles" with hard drives and physically drive them across the country. Sometimes, a dude in a truck is infinitely superior to fiber optics.
One discovery leads to another.
