About these units
Petabyte (PB)
A petabyte is 1 quadrillion bytes in decimal (10¹⁵) or 1,125,899,906,842,624 bytes in binary (2⁵⁰). At this size, storage enters the realm of massive data infrastructures: internet archive collections, large-scale scientific simulations, genomic sequencing databases, machine learning datasets containing billions of records, multinational cloud storage networks. A single PB can store thousands of HD films, millions of e-books, or extensive enterprise backups. Petabytes mark the transition from everyday computing into large-scale data engineering, distributed systems, and global information ecosystems.
DVD (1 layer, 1 side) (DVD (1L, 1S))
A single-layer, single-sided DVD stores 4.7 GB, a massive leap from CD capacity. DVD technology enabled the transition from VHS tapes to digital video, offering superior clarity, durability, and bonus features. Beyond video, DVDs supported data archiving, software distribution, and game installation. The 4.7 GB DVD became a cornerstone of home entertainment, education, and computing, serving as a universal medium for nearly a decade before Blu-ray and online streaming began to replace physical media.
