Example: convert 12 TB to b:
12 TB = 12 x 8796093022208 = 105553116266496 b
Terabyte
Definition: A terabyte (TB) is a unit of data storage equal to 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. It is a very large multiple of the byte, used for enormous storage capacities.
History/origin: Similar to other byte multiples, the terabyte uses the SI prefix 'tera' to represent one trillion. Its use became essential as storage devices reached unprecedented capacities.
Current use: Terabytes are now commonly used to describe the capacities of large hard drives, solid-state drives (SSDs), and network storage devices. Databases, cloud storage, and media archives are also often measured in terabytes.
Bit
Definition: A bit (binary digit) is the smallest unit of data in a computer. It can have a value of either 0 or 1.
History/origin: The concept of a bit was developed by Claude Shannon in his 1948 paper "A Mathematical Theory of Communication." It is fundamental to information theory and digital computing.
Current use: Bits are the foundation of all digital information. They are used to represent and process data in computers, communication systems, and storage devices.
