The portion I'm looking for clarification on is the very last NOTE block at the bottom of the page which states:

I'm not working with a data cap but do have a 95th percentile bandwidth allotment that I must keep mirrors under and if that 15 Tb is representative of the traffic I could expect over a month then 15 Tb of traffic would be right around 6 Mbps and acceptable while 15 TB of traffic would be over my allotment.
