Just as a coincidence - Slashdot is running a story about the Facebook photo storage. Basically they want to do the same as this. Storing all the photos in large chunks with external index. They even encode the start and length of the file to serve within the url (and some security measures).http://beta.flowgram.com/f/p.html#2qi3k8eicrfgkvSo - if they start serving 450TByte with 6.5 Billion photos like this it cant be all so wrong.
However they have a completely different update profile. OTOH I think this can work quite well even for us.
