Terabyte (10^12 Bytes)
A terabyte (TB) is a unit of digital information equal to 10^12 bytes, commonly used to measure data storage capacity.
History/Origin
The term 'terabyte' was introduced in the 1990s as storage capacities increased, following the adoption of the binary prefix 'tera' from the metric system, though it is often used in decimal form for storage devices.
Current Use
Terabytes are widely used today to quantify data storage in hard drives, solid-state drives, data centers, and cloud storage services, reflecting large-scale data capacities.
Gigabit
A gigabit (Gb) is a unit of digital information equal to one billion bits, commonly used to measure data transfer rates and storage capacity.
History/Origin
The gigabit originated as part of the metric system for digital information, gaining prominence with the rise of high-speed internet and large data storage systems in the late 20th century.
Current Use
Gigabits are widely used today to specify internet connection speeds, network bandwidth, and data transfer rates in various digital devices and services.
