I remember hearing that Google has over 100,000 servers internationally and if one dies, it'll just sit there for about a month until Google replaces it.

I would say too little. They have all of the internet to archive. Not only that, but they have over 5 million (possibly 2 times that) Gmail accounts to erm... account for. Because Google allows for 2.7 GB of Gmail storage, that comes up to [at least] 13,500,000 GB of storage to guarantee users. If that isn't a statistic, I don't know what is.

EDIT: Got some new stats from Wiki.

450,000 servers
80GB HDs-- one or more in each server
They use Intels
$2 Million electricity bill (yeah, each month)

Google is currently developing a supercomputer at a data center located in the town of The Dalles, Oregon, on the Columbia River, approximately 80 miles from Portland. The project, codenamed "Project 02",[7] is expected to substantially add to their current global network capable of processing billions of search queries per day and a growing repertoire of other services.[7] The new complex is approximately the size of two football fields with cooling towers four stories high.
