> XetHub has the world’s first natively cross-platform, user-mode filesystem implementation, allowing you to mount arbitrarily large datasets on your machine.
Not really world's first. CERN has developed EOS (https://eos-web.web.cern.ch/) for many years, and even though it's not available natively on Windows, it is available on Linux and macOS. EOS uses FUSE, though, not NFS.
> This enables you to, in just a few seconds, locally mount ~660 GB of Llama 2 models or write DuckDB queries to analyze large parquet files and scan just the data you need.
If you mount all instances of EOS at CERN on your machine with the FUSE client, that in principle mounts hundreds of PB of data from LHC experiments, although much of this data requires special permissions to be accessed. However, there's also a lot of open data. See https://opendata.cern.ch/.
The client is available on Windows via a samba gateway. There's also a sync client for CERNBox for Windows, and even Android and iOS (https://cernbox.web.cern.ch/cernbox/downloads/). The server is not available on Windows, though. However, I'd say that among physicists Windows is definitely the least popular OS.
