That certainly won't fill the new 10^12 Byte (aka Terabyte) models ;-)

Ah, okay. But since there are lots of XP (Home) systems out there that
use FAT32 by default, splitting is probably quite common.

Well, you can expect at most ~30 MB/s with USB 2.0, 11.2 MB/s with Fast
(100 Mbps) Ethernet and 112 MB/s with Gigabit Ethernet. The latter will
probably not be reached with a single disk. And if you're using a
high-overhead network protocol like SMB/CIFS, throughput will be even lower.

What was the *.rec for again?
