About Tebibytes
A tebibyte (TiB) = 2⁴⁰ bytes = 1,099,511,627,776 bytes (IEC 80000-13). Storage management tools (Hadoop HDFS, Ceph, ZFS) report in TiB. A 16-drive NAS with 20 TB drives in RAID 6 has ≈252 TiB usable. RAID 5 rebuild at 200 MB/s for a 16 TiB drive takes ≈25 hours (risk window). Cloud archive storage (S3 Glacier) costs ≈$0.001/GB-month. 1 TiB = 2⁴⁰ bytes = 1,024 GiB.
About Terabits
A terabit (Tbit) = 10¹² bits (SI). Submarine cable capacity: 2Africa cable (2024) designed at 180 Tbit/s; MAREA (2017) at 160 Tbit/s. Data-centre interconnects use 400 Gbit/s (0.4 Tbit/s) per link. PCIe 6.0 ×16 delivers ≈0.5 Tbit/s aggregate. NVMe RAID arrays with 100+ PCIe 5.0 SSDs approach 1 Tbit/s aggregate sequential read. 1 Tbit = 10¹² bits = 125 GB.
