Given enough resource, How much data can you chug through in a day?

[Tech_Dreamer]

This meaning true unlimited data with no caps or extra charge for a single dat at full blast optical fiber speed, Plus storage isn't an issue, What would be the most traffic from your system be kept aside for?

[Suffokation]

Downloading spicy Linus memes.

[TheKDub]

Well, today I'll be going through at least 70GB

 

(Bought ESO a little bit ago, downloading it right now.. otherwise I'd use maybe 1-10GB per day depending on what I'm doing, maybe more, maybe less.)

 

According to windows in the past 30 days I've used roughly 200GB of data, and that's only on my PC so far lol, I probably have another 5+GB or so on my tablet, then maybe 10-50MB on my phone. (I don't use my phone for much, and when I am using it I typically have wifi, so nice for me cause I have ting and it gets expensive when you use lots of data lol)

I would have actually bought a digital copy of GTA V.

But due to that Australia and especially my ISP (Dodo) having shit internet, the updates of the physical copy took 2 hours to download. 

[C0LL0SS0S]

well I guess I would download loads of movies and games so about 500-100GB a day

[Bhav]

Download all the pronz!!!

[Remilia]

Probably more than half a terabyte, I'd download tons of shitty anime that I'd never watch.

[Sylvanar]

Easily more than half TB...anime, TV series, random vids and whatever else that comes to mind    :lol:

i don't have any data cap on my Internet and my family and i go through almost 4TB a month

[Shylidi]

I live in Provo, and have gigabit internet, (~900Mbps up and down) I use probably 100GB per day, 4K Video, FLAC Audio, and general internet downloadery. (I do not keep it all, lol that storage would get stupid quick!)

[TetraSky]

Unless I suddenly changed my habits on the internet, it shouldn't be any higher than what I currently do. Between 5 to 10GB per day. (some days are higher, if I download a game on steam or something)

 

At most, I could download something like 2TB of data. Because that's how much free space I have on my computer.

[Blebekblebek]

I was using 260GB/month with 64-256kbps line (both up & down according to my ISP)

 

technically with 10mbps line for 24/7/30 days usage you can download 3.24TB, that would be 32.4TB for 100mbps line

 

for todays standard usage I think it's pretty obvious most bandwith hogging comes from streaming than downloading

 

Youtube, twitch, netflix and so on, these services imo reduces the amount of data needed to be download to client because consumer can skip or close it before it finish.

 

however that being said, the amount of data ofcourse will raised overtime, since internet become more common for works, home, education and basically everything else.

it is sad truth that bandwith cap still exist, not because the bandwith it self is limited, but infrastructure just can't handle too much traffic.

 

how much you need? you can count it yourself
