Hi, After reading through this newsgroup and getting all excited about the new series, I have decided to go into my lab at university and download a few episodes from the new series onto cd.
Only question is, where would I get them from? The lab wont allow me to install p2p sharing applications so itll have to be web....
If you use factors of 1,000 a petabyte is a million gigabytes, so if your computer has a 50Gb hard drive, it's 20,000 such hard drives.
1 kilobyte (Kb) is 1,000 bytes (strictly speaking it should be kb) 1 megabyte (Mb) is 1,000 Kb 1 gigabyte (Gb) is 1,000 Mb 1 terabyte (Tb) is 1,000 Gb 1 petabyte (Pb) is 1,000 Tb 1 exabyte (Eb) is 1,000 Pb 1 zettabyte (Zb) is 1,000 Eb 1 yottabyte (Yb) is 1,000 Zb
Actually, in computing you should use factors of 1,024 so a petabyte is 1,048,576 Gb, or 1,125,899,906,842,624 bytes.
My annotated copy of the King James Bible is 4,563,915 bytes, so a petabyte would store just under 250 million copies of that bible.
