Default Sending Hard disks to another data center?

Hi, I want to migrate about 5TB of data (4.78TB) to another data center in Netherlands from my base in Brazil. What is the best way to do this?

hehe are you serious man, honestly look at the maths

Say I get 11 Mbps of total full utilization, It going to be just a bit over a month (43 days) to transfer 5 TB.

11 Mbps = 1.375 MBps = 116.015 GB/day.

5000 GB / 116.015 GB/day = ~43.01 days. (!!!)

What upspeed can you get? Rsync will pick up where you left it, maybe you can run it for a long time then? I have done this before.

Around 11Mb that's all. I think it's best to ship the disks with a airfreight service personally...
