I am, at this very moment, holding a 1.5 terabyte hard drive.
That’s an impossible number to me. 1.5 terabytes. 1500 gigabytes.
That means that this hard drive, weighing just a few pounds, can store and retrieve over 12,000,000,000,000 (twelve trillion) ones and zeros. Twelve trillion. What are there twelve trillion of in the world? That’s a lot of ones and zeros.
