> 7Gbits/s saturated over a month is 2,247 TB
Even the best calculation is wrong when you plug in the wrong friggin data... I confused myself from converting gbit to GB and ended up with 0.7 gbit instead of 7 .. :-S
> Also €15/TB seems low
That's why I do business with them :) It's hetzner.de, and their "rootserver" (€49/month and up) comes with 2.000 GB free traffic. Extra is free, but capped at 10 mbit, or €14.90/TB. The servers are connected at 100 mbit, though. I'd guess that's just to keep the ethernet infrastructure cheap, and a gbit connection would be possible for a fee.
I'm not affiliated with them, just a happy customer.
