Wimp. I'm waiting for the 1 YB model.

YB = yottabyte = 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes = 1,000 terabytes

I don't know if there is a higher value than yottabyte in computer language.

I probably should go shopping on Friday. I have to get gifts out to Alaska ASAP.

Actually... A petabyte is 1,000 TB. A yottabyte is 1 trillion terabytes.

A petabyte is 1,125,899,906,842,624 bytes

A yottabyte is 1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 bytes

Those are pebibytes and yobibytes respectively, and they are the binary values. Petabyte and yottabyte are the decimal.

No kidding! Where's my google-byte? (that's the extent of my techy talk - so yeah - not so techy.)

Especially since you spelled googol wrong ;)

My favorite tidbit of useless techy trivia is that while 8 bits is a byte, 4 bits is a nibble.

Seriously!
