yottabyte
Ten septillion bytes
A yottabyte is a unit of digital information equal to one septillion bytes (10²⁴), or approximately a trillion terabytes.
It's the largest standard unit in the metric prefix system for data storage.
No data systems yet operate at yottabyte scale—the term exists mainly for theoretical discussion of future capacity: The world's total data storage might reach a yottabyte by 2030.
