DAMN! 1.1 “tebibytes”. That must be a lot of data considering I’ve never heard of that unit of measure!

A “tebibyte” is just another name for a "terabyte" of BINARY data, using the IEC-approved naming convention.

"te" = Tera
"bi" = Binary
"byte" = 8 bits

wiki: A tebibyte (TiB) is a unit of measurement in computers and similar electronic devices. Tebibytes hold 1024 gibibytes (GiB) or 1,099,511,627,776 bytes. Some people incorrectly call this number of bytes a terabyte, which is actually one trillion bytes, or 1000 gigabytes (GB).

terabyte = 1000 ^ 4 (that’s 1000 * 1000 * 1000 * 1000 bytes)
tebibyte = 1024 ^ 4

Nah, just a few bits more than a Terabyte. All the "ebi" labels have to do with specifically dealing with multiplying by 1,000 vs. multiplying by 1,024. Hard drive manufacturers stick with 1,000 to make the amount sound like more. RAM manufacturers with 1,024 because of the way chips are inherently designed (powers of 2)

To put that into perspective a TERABYTE is 1000 GIGABYTES.

at least it wasn’t 1.21 gigawatts.
