37.5TB (or even 1TB) passing thru a 100MBps pipe (which can only max
out at 133MBps, unless mobo design moves towards "internal" PCIe)
sounds really painful.
The side-effect of needing to throw lots of spindles and SCSI cards
and PCI busses at large data stores is that it gives you lots of
throughput.
