I've heard we need more fiber. I now realize I had no idea why. |

We need wireless fiber. Those Brillo-based bran

With Wi-fiber, could my SAN be a bunch of disk

You'd need to use a pretty high frequency in order
to provide adequate bandwidth. As a side effect,
you could heat up your lunch by simply placing it in

transfer. |
