Q. A terabyte is equal to- 
  1. 1 quadrillion bytes
  2. 1 billion bytes
  3. 1 million bytes
  4. 1 trillion bytes
Answer: 1 trillion bytes 

The computer's memory consists of many millions of bytes. To make it easier, the unit K (for kilobytes) can be used to express memory capacity. One K equals 1,024. For example, 64K bytes of memory is the same as 65,536 (1,024 × 64 = 65,536) bytes. For larger memory capacities, the units mega and giga can be used. One megabyte of computer memory usually means 1024 kilobytes, which is 1,048,576 bytes, whereas one gigabyte means 1024 megabytes, which is 1,073,741,824 bytes. The size of the memory address that the computer uses limits the number of bytes it can handle.
  • 1 Bit = Binary Digit
  • 8 Bits = 1 Byte
  • 1024 Bytes = 1 KB (Kilo Byte)
  • 1024 KB = 1 MB (Mega Byte)
  • 1024 MB = 1 GB(Giga Byte)
  • 1024 GB = 1 TB(Terra Byte)
  • 1024 TB = 1 PB(Peta Byte)
  • 1024 PB = 1 EB(Exa Byte)
  • 1024 EB = 1 ZB(Zetta Byte)
  • 1024 ZB = 1 YB (Yotta Byte)
  • 1024 YB = 1 (Bronto Byte)
  • 1024 Brontobyte = 1 (Geop Byte)
