    Awesome bandwidth to be sure, but I do think there is a difference between data transfer to RAM (such as network traffic) vs. traffic purely from one location to another (station wagon with tapes/747 with SD cards/etc.).

    For the latter, actually using the data in any meaningful way is probably limited to read time of the media, which is likely slow.

    But yeah, my go-to would be micro SD cards on a plane :)

      Well, it depends on the purpose of the data. If it’s meant as an offsite backup… well… you’re probably it driving them just down the street anyway.
