How much is 100mbps / month in TB of data transferred?

Some of the hosts I am looking at have the bandwidth transfer in the speed of the network interface - NOT in the TB of data???

This is a bit confusing so how much can I transfer with 10mbps and how much with 100mbps?
Tip for best answer: M$2.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

100 mb/s maxed out for one month would be 33.48 TB

Though, you really have to consider whether you'd be even be close to maxing out the bandwidth for an entire month straight.
source(s):
Mb/s * s/min * min/hr * hr/day * days/month * bits/Mb ÷ bits/Byte ÷ TB / Byte

Mb/s * s/min = 6,000 Mb/min
* min/hr = 360,000 Mb/hr
* hr/day = 8,640,000 Mb/day
* days/month = 267,840,000 Mb/month
* bits/Mb = 267,840,000,000,000 bits/month
/ bits/Byte = 33,480,000,000,000 Bytes/month
/ TB / Byte = 33.48 TB/month

Any extra help on how you calculated that so I know for the future ;)

I updated the answer ... put the calculations in the "source(s)"

Uh oh....

found an error....

"1,000,000,000,000 TB / Byte" should actually read "1,000,000,000,000 Bytes / TB"


But the final answer is unaffected by that.

It all makes sense now ;) Thanks. I suppose I won't be using that much on my http://iBetaTest.com, at least not in the first months. Thanks!
