After terabyte, the next units of measurement for data storage are:
- Petabyte: 1,000 terabytes or 1,000,000 gigabytes.
- Exabyte: 1,000 petabytes or 1 billion gigabytes.
- Zettabyte: 1,000 exabytes or 1 trillion gigabytes.
- Yottabyte: 1,000 zettabytes or 1 quadrillion gigabytes.
Its worth noting that these units of measurement are based on the International System of Units (SI) prefixes, which are based on powers of 10. However, in binary, which is how computers store data, the units are based on powers of 2. This means that the actual storage capacity of a device may be slightly different from what is indicated by its advertised capacity.
