What comes after the Terabyte?

Posted: chaaban on Nov 02 | Computer Questions

I’ve a question: what comes after the Terabyte?

8 bits = 1 Byte

What comes after the Byte ?
1024 Bytes = 1 Kilobyte

What comes after the kilobyte ?
1024 Kilobytes = 1 Megabyte

What comes after the Megabyte ?
1024 Megabytes = 1 Gigabyte

What comes after the Gigabytes ?
1024 Gigabytes = 1 Terabyte

What comes after the Terabytes?
1024 Terabytes = 1 Petabyte

What comes after the Petabytes ?
1024 Petabytes = 1 Exabyte

What comes after the Exabyte ?
1024 Exabyte = 1 zettabyte

What comes after the zettabyte ?
1024 zettabyte = 1 Yottabyte

    This is great-Ive always wanted to know what comes after a terabyte.

  2. Eric on June 1, 2007

    CAll me a nerd, but I just calculated under the circumstances that one GB of RAM is 120$ with no increase of intervals, that 1 yottabyte of ram shall cost 12 quadrillion dollars, or 1,000,000,000,000,000 million dollars

  3. Steve on July 20, 2007

    Call ME a nerd, but I just worked out that there are 1180591620717411303424 Gigabytes in 1 Yottabyte.

  4. bob on September 13, 2007

    i want a one yottabyte hard drive, one terabyte of ram, and a 5 teraHz processor. how long do you thing something like that will come around if ever?

  5. Marty on September 19, 2007

    Yes, this is true. However, a decade ago 1 meg was like 100 bucks maybe even more and now you can’t give megs away. There will come a point in which you can get gigs by the pennies.

    All i wanna know now is, what comes after a yotabyte.
    And possibly beyond………….

  7. Saria on October 13, 2007

    No CALL ME THE NERD

    there are 10141204801825835211973625643008bit in a yottabyte

    Just imagine the games then. A Nintendo 64 game cartridge had approx 32 megabites, and ran off a 64 bit processor. Just imainge when games are 12 Yottabytes and are running off a 5 zattabite processor….

  9. KILLTHENERDS on November 6, 2007

    US military probably have some sort of super computer that is like the one u want. It really would’nt surprise me lol

  10. jsanford91 on November 12, 2007

    first comes a byte (8 bits) then kilobyte (1024 bytes) then megabyte (1024 kilobytes) then gigabyte (1024 megabytes) then terabytes (1000 gigabytes) then petabytes (1000 terabytes) then exabytes (1000 petabytes) then zettabytes (1000 exabytes) finaly yottabytes (1000 zettabytes)

    why is it measured 1024 to go up a level?

  12. Aaron on December 9, 2007

    computer data and file size is normally measured in binary code using the binary number system (counted by factors of two 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, etc), the prefixes for the multiples are based on the metric system! The nearest binary number to 1,000 is 2^10 or 1,024; thus 1,024 bytes was named a Kilobyte. So, although a metric “kilo” equals 1,000 (e.g. one kilogram = 1,000 grams), a binary “Kilo” equals 1,024 (e.g. one Kilobyte = 1,024 bytes). Not surprisingly, this has led to a great deal of confusion.

    Noobs u cant have that much memory n00bs

  14. Ghyslyn on December 13, 2007

    SMIDKM, strap together all the hard drives in the world and u might get close

  15. SMIKDM on December 14, 2007

    LOL all the memory in the world is around 10-40 exabytes n00b

  16. Ghyslyn on December 18, 2007

    and while im here being a noob getting a university degree and joining the army, youre sitting at home upgradin ur rank on the server.

    honestly, id rather be a noob then be useless

  17. SKMIKDM on December 21, 2007

    I was joking and its not like i really care about upgrading my rank on some forum. But i am still right about the world being 10-40 exabytes. BTW if your getting a college degree why would you join the army?

  18. joe tasker on December 26, 2007

    After the yottabyte is the darthabyte. After the darthabyte is the lukabyte and after the lukabyte is the obiwannabyte.
    If you need to keep going there is the meabyte which is the reverse of the byteame.

  19. Bryan Muller on January 2, 2008

    I wish I could have 10 1024 Yotabyte Flash memory based hard drives :)

    I’m so greedy :) haha

  20. Sles on January 4, 2008

    KILLTHENERDS, I doubt the US military has a super computer like that. The US military doesn’t know how to handle important technology like that, they would probably package it into a bomb by accident or something.

  21. raaarg on January 19, 2008

    Yeah, we’d probably use said bomb to level whatever white-flag waving country you’re from

  22. Jesenjin on January 19, 2008

    One thing is for sure…. you cannot have a processor stronger than few giga hertz… No matter how much we want stronger… it will eventually work on deadly frequency… Chernobyl anyone??

  23. hewho is called i am on March 6, 2008

    to say what the us military or the us government may or may not (or ever will have) and the incapability of utilizing in addition to possession of such is both ludicrous and ignorant. you haven’t the foggiest idea of what is going on in the realm of the ultra classified.

  24. YO on April 3, 2008

    YO! man… it rox… i mean think that sum 1 had only… i mean only 1 yottabyte processer… hah!!!awesome!!!
    wat else a persons need’s????????
    HUH!!!

  25. comp's world on April 3, 2008

    YO! man… it rox… i mean think that sum 1 had only… i mean only 1 yottabyte processer… hah!!!awesome!!!
    wat else a persons need’s????????
    HUH!!!

  26. stephanie on April 8, 2008

    umm wow u ppl that spoke in the begining are so scientific i just need to know what comes after a yottabyte for a computer paper extra credit

  27. Bryan on April 10, 2008

    stephanie:

    I don’t think anything comes after the Yottabyte…..
    Personally, I’m not even sure NASA has a Yottabyte of storage space….

  28. tera-nerd on April 26, 2008

    Of course NASA does not have a lot of storage, that is why they have all of those paper-forms hanging on all of those clipboards next to all of the computer terminals.

  29. Andrew on May 14, 2008

    why ae you all so stupid!!!!!
    After the Yottabye comes the latsisbyte

  30. Keven on May 16, 2008

    I’m pretty sure that there isn’t a zottabyte of information in the world.
