About Yobibits
A yobibit (Yibit) = 2⁸⁰ bits ≈ 1.21 × 10²⁴ bits (IEC 80000-13, 2008). An 80-bit physical address space would provide 2⁸⁰ bytes = 128 YiB of byte-addressable memory - physically preposterous by any current forecast. World manufactured storage in 2023 ≈ 10 ZB ≈ 0.00828 Yibit. A 267-qubit quantum register has a state space of 2²⁶⁷ ≈ 1 Yibit in bits. IEC 2022 added 'ronbi' (Ri, 2⁹⁰) and 'quetti' (Qi, 2¹⁰⁰) for theoretical future use. 1 Yibit = 2⁸⁰ bits = 128 ZiB.
About Zettabytes
A zettabyte (ZB) = 10²¹ bytes (SI). The 'zettabyte era' was declared by Cisco in 2016 when annual IP traffic first crossed 1 ZB. Global IP traffic ≈ 4.8 ZB/year in 2022. Total data-centre capacity worldwide ≈ 10 ZB in 2023. Global datasphere forecast: 175 ZB/year created by 2025 (IDC). Erasing 1 ZB at the Landauer limit (300 K) would require ≈ 22.8 J - a tiny energy cost that thermodynamic limits will not bite for decades. 1 ZB = 10²¹ bytes = 1,000 EB.
