About Terabytes
A terabyte (TB) = 10¹² bytes (SI). Consumer HDDs: 1-22 TB; consumer NVMe SSDs: 1-8 TB. LTO-9 tape: 18 TB/cartridge; enterprise libraries: hundreds of petabytes. Whole genome sequencing: Illumina NovaSeq 6000 run ≈ 6 TB raw FASTQ. JWST downlinks ≈ 57 GB/day (≈20 TB/year). 4K NVR (64 cameras) ≈ 1 TB/day. 1 TB = 10¹² bytes = 1,000 GB.
About Gibibytes
A gibibyte (GiB) = 2³⁰ = 1,073,741,824 bytes (IEC 80000-13). The source of the 'storage discrepancy': a '500 GB' drive contains 500×10⁹ bytes ≈ 465.66 GiB as shown by Windows. RAM is manufactured in exact powers of 2: 4/8/16/32/64 GiB. GPU VRAM: RTX 4090 = 24 GiB; H100 = 80 GiB; MI300X = 192 GiB HBM3. Kubernetes memory limits use Gi suffixes. 1 GiB = 2³⁰ bytes = 1,024 MiB.
