A Petabyte is 1000 Terrabytes.

A Terrabyte is 1000 Gigabytes

1000 Petabytes = 1 Exabyte

1000 Exabytes = 1 Zetabyte

1000 Zetabytes = 1 Yottabyte

1000 Yottabytes = 1 Brontobyte

1000 Brontobytes= 1 Geopbyte

Ten Terabytes could hold the printed collection of the Library of Congress.

Five Exabytes would be equal to all of the words ever spoken by mankind.

It would take approximately 11 trillion years to download a yottabyte file from the internet using high-power broadband. You can compare it to the World Wide Web as the entire Internet almost takes up a Yottabyte.

Beyond Exabytes, the world is not exacly shure why we made names for those amounts of data. No one alive today, tommorow, the next day, or the next day, would ever live to see a Geopbyte Hard Drive.

If you Think About it though, everyone will probably be working off of terrabyte hard drives soon, rather than Gigabytes. Think of how much space HD and Blu Ray Movies take Up. What about all of those Computer Games? If you think about it, I would be surprised if by 2013, Terabyte Hard Drives aren't the national standard.

So far, a 1.2 Petabyte Hard Drive is unobtainable. Few exist, and you can only imagine the price.
