About Zettabytes per second

Zettabyte per second (ZB/s) = 10²¹ B/s (SI). Total global internet traffic in 2024 ≈ 5 ZB/year; at 1 ZB/s the entire year's internet traffic would transfer in 5 seconds. LHC raw detector data ≈ 1 PB/s - six orders of magnitude below 1 ZB/s. Purely cosmological in scale. 1 ZB/s = 10²¹ B/s = 8 Zbit/s.

About Pebibytes per second

Pebibyte per second (PiB/s) = 2⁵⁰ B/s ≈ 1.126 × 10¹⁵ B/s (IEC 80000-13). NTT's 2024 lab record (1.53 Pbit/s ≈ 191 TB/s ≈ 0.17 PiB/s) is the closest any physical link has come. An exascale cluster with 10,000 nodes × 10 TiB/s each ≈ 97.7 PiB/s aggregate - approaching this range in the aggregate, not a single link. From a physics standpoint, requires ≈ 10 million NVMe SSDs in parallel. 1 PiB/s = 2⁵⁰ B/s ≈ 8 Pibit/s.
