Peta. I recently got a pat on the back from the boss for cramming our enterprise backups into ONLY three servers with 36 TB internal storage apiece. A tenth of a petabyte. We'll be over a petabyte before those guys come out of warranty. I figure three years, tops.

That sounds about right. I’m getting ready to replace the drives in an older RAID drive that we have in an instrumentation system. If I go with 3 TB drives, which are now nothing particularly special, it will have a whopping 48 TB. Incredible.

And on the other end, Mega is the new Kilo in terms of being almost trivially small. A meg is starting to be like the penny on the ground that you don’t pick up because it’s not worth the effort.
