4.5 Petabytes
Friday, May 22, 2009
An interesting figure - I have to admit I have had to look up exactly what a Petabyte is. If you’re interested it is one quadrillion bytes (1,000,000,000,000,000 bytes). To put that in context a Gigabyte is 1,000,000,000 bytes, a megabyte is 1,000,000 bytes. Allegedly the size of the Internets Archive Wayback Engine. My .net magazine is claiming this is the size of the internet - housed in a single 20 foot shipping container.
