I reckon a truck full of DAT tapes could hold about 156 petabytes.Hella bad latency though. I guess the actual bandwidth depends on how many trucks can arrive per second.
If they arrive at the rate of one per hour, the bandwidth of a big truck is 347 Terabits per second, or 347,000,000 Mbit/s.
Downloading all the data in the world this way (or at least all the data in the world in 2006, according to the New York Times) would take a month and a half.
