What Is A Yottabyte? Or A Zettabyte?


What Is A Yottabyte? Or A Zettabyte?

harddrive_FullWe here at TheNextWeb feel the  need to impart small parts of our vast use of Google knowledge on the occasion. Now, what is bigger than a Gigabyte? A Terebyte of course. And then? Most people know Petabyte, but what follows is harder indeed.

1000 GB = 1 Terabyte (TB)
1000 TB = 1 Petabyte (PB)
1000 PB = 1 Exabyte (EB)
1000 EB = 1 Zettabyte (ZB)
1000 ZB = 1 Yottabyte (YB)
