You are forgetting the time it takes to copy the data to and from these cards. Data may be transported, but it is not usable until you copy it. Copying 20 TiB is probaply going to take some time

you have the same problem with downloads though. In the end any download rate exceeding your disc write speed doesnt get you there faster.

ofc. you can write as you download, which makes things faster.
