The term terabyte refers to a unit for measuring the storage capacity of digital devices, storage media and data in information technology.
A terabyte (TB) usually corresponds to 1 trillion bytes or 1,024 gigabytes (GB). This is a considerable amount of digital data, which is stored in various storage media and systems, such as hard disks, servers, cloud storage services or solid state drives (SSDs). The larger the capacity of a storage device in terabytes, the more data it can store.
Due to the increasing amount of data and the need for extensive storage capacities, terabytes are common in many areas of IT infrastructure.
