Data storage has been growing exponentially over the past decade.
Look up the following capacities on the Internet:
byte
kilobyte
megabyte
gigabyte
terabyte
petabyte
exabyte
zettabyte
yottabyte.
How big are they?
Give me an example of what can be stored with each capacity, i.e. Blueray holds 500 GB of data.

1 Bit = Binary Digit
· 8 Bits = 1 Byte
· 1000 Bytes = 1 Kilobyte
· 1000 Kilobytes = 1 Megabyte
· 1000 Megabytes = 1 Gigabyte
· 1000 Gigabytes = 1 Terabyte
· 1000 Terabytes = 1 Petabyte
· 1000 Petabytes = 1 Exabyte
· 1000 Exabytes = 1 Zettabyte
· 1000 Zettabytes = 1 Yottabyte
· 1000 Yottabytes = 1 Brontobyte
5 Exabytes would be equal to all of the words ever spoken by mankind.
That's a lot of data.
