Yottabyte, but that's waaaaaaay more than I meant lol. I completely forgot that petabyte, exabyte, and zettabyte are between TB and YB

Fun fact, GPT disks can only go up to 9.6 ZB. So it would take over 100 maxed out GPT disks to get 1 yottabyte of storage.

Yottabyte is past tense for yeet-a-byte because you for sure should have cleaned up your storage before then.

Pretty sure that’s true. But I didn’t know yottabyte was a thing (fr) so I could be wrong I guess.

I don’t even begin to understand your fun fact, which made it more fun for me. 😊
