About Yottabytes
A yottabyte (YB) = 10²⁴ bytes (SI) - among the largest original SI named powers. Global annual data generation forecast ≈ 175 ZB = 0.000175 YB by 2025 (IDC) - a yottabyte equals ≈ 5,700 years of data production at 2025 rates. Claims of multi-YB NSA data centres were debunked; credible estimates: 3-100 EB. Erasing 1 YB at the Landauer limit (300 K) would require ≈ 182 J - enough to heat 0.4 mL of water by 1°C. 1 YB = 10²⁴ bytes = 1,000 ZB.
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.
