- A thesis comparing actual scalability would be much more interesting than one comparing, essentially, the container size chosen for a disk block. One could quickly write a filesystem which "can" be a

- Jet lag due to time travel caused a math error above. With today's 4TB drives it would require 2.25 million units for a raw 9EB capacity. That's 3,750 racks of 600 drives each. These would stretch 1.
