About Petabytes
A petabyte (PB) = 10¹⁵ bytes (SI). Major platforms operate at PB scale: Meta ingests > 4 PB/day; YouTube adds several PB of video content daily. CERN Run 3 produced ≈ 90 PB in 2022. 1,000-genome cohort (WGS at 30×) ≈ 0.4 PB. English Wikipedia with media ≈ 10 PB. A rack of Blu-ray cold storage (Facebook Project Amber) holds 1 PB. 1 PB = 10¹⁵ bytes = 1,000 TB.
