According to http://www.pitts-el.de/electron/hextabh.htm there are names for even bigger units than yottabyte.
Sorry boys, it seems that there is someone who's byte is bigger than yours

Too bad those bigass drives are virtually useless as far as performance goes (would you really wanna be copying 256TB back and forth at 30Mbytes/sec (not to mention what would happen if u had a CRC failure )

On a more serious note, if you're interested in a mass storage for archival purposes, look into either setting up a RAID (either 0- or 5- or one of them funky "+" ones) or better yet, get a SAN/NAS

I found on Google: one NANObyte is 1,000 (or 1024) yottabytes. Now go bust your teacher's ass!

ofcourse there is bigger stuff then yottabyte, there is one after that

A brontobyte is 1024 yottabytes which is about 1.24 * 10^27 bytes.
