100G to the server won't be that far away.
On one hand I see a lot of servers are still fine at 1G for the most part and 2.5G would be a good option than power hungry 10G copper. On the other hand I have a few servers that the network usage never drops below 5-7G all day and they could maybe use 10G now.

Back to the topic of course, these large ssd's are perfect (except cost), nearly every server has enough drive bays to house their local datasets easily.

You'll be needing 40Gbps to get the best out of that sort of system. Three systems with 2 drives each would be capable of delivering better than 48Gbps so your 10Gb network will be the new bottleneck.
HP Moonshot 1500 Chassis| Hewlett Packard Enterprise®
best node currently has dual 10gbe nics.
Some of them only have dual 1gbe nics.

Now connecting to the chassis you can have up to 8 QSFP+ ports...but you won't be having any one server having 40Gbps to it... and you wouldn't want to as you have to feed 45 cartridges with up to 4 nodes per cartridge.
