If you have the money for a 64GB zip drive ($150+) I'd say use that, but then what are you going to do with it? You might as well add a larger HD to your computer --- it would be cheaper, unless you're dealing with a laptop.
Or you could go with an external HD --- you probably need one anyway to back up your computer.
Do both servers have ftp enabled? You could do it command line from server #1:
Code:
> cd /source_directory
> ftp server_2_URL
ftp> bi
ftp> cd /target_directory
ftp> put giant_zipped_file.gz
ftp> quit

60 GB is probably going to take forever, though. and ftp may time out in the meantime.
Try splitting your giant zipped file:
Code:
> split -b1000m giant_zipped_file.gz giant
This will split your file into 60 or so 1 GB chunks with names (giantaa, giantab, giantac, ...)
Now you can transfer your sixty files from one server to the other.
On server number two, you'll have to piece your zip file back together:
Code:
> cat giantaa giantab giantac ... > giant_zipped_file.gz
And then you can unzip as normal.
