[CentOS-mirror] Old Mirror Re-submission

Most providers commonly offer speeds of 100Mbps, 1Gbps (the most common) and 10Gbps. I deduced the quota from your first e-mail, where you stated “Bandwidth: 1TB”.

I find it extremely hard to believe that your mirror has 1Tbps bandwidth. No storage device has the capacity to read at 100Gbps, let alone 1Tbps. The fastest SSD available that I’m aware of are the enterprise-grade PCIe SSDs, rated at about 10Gbps. And no hardware manufacturer to date has developed 1Tbps cards.

So the only logical way to truly get 1Tbps mirror speeds, would be to operate multiple racks and aggregate bandwidth which isn’t a feasible way to operate a mirror. Which if you are, I’m sure Anssi and Fabian would be your new best friends and I’d love to see some photos.

Thanks,
Christopher H.

I'm not sure where you're getting 1Gbps, I submitted (which is correct) a bandwidth of 1Tbps.

Hello Peter,

If your mirror is added, with 1TB on a 1Gbps port, you will easily exceed your quota. Typically mirror hosts operate unmetered transit services, and the bandwidth they can allocate to the mirror from the transit is the value included here.

Although your offer is greatly appreciated by the community, I would reconsider your offer. If you do decide to stay (and Anssi and/or Fabian accept your mirror), you will be asked for the connectivity speed.

Thanks,
Christopher H.
