What Is a Terabyte?
A terabyte is 1,000 gigabytes or 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. Common size for modern hard drives and SSDs. Learn more: Gibibytes to ZB calculator.
The terabyte is a SI decimal unit of digital information storage. It uses base 1,000 following the SI (International System of Units) standard. See also: Ybps to Zettabytes Per Second converter.
Common uses: External hard drives, NAS storage, video libraries, enterprise backups Check out our Terabytes to Petabytes conversion.
1 TB = 8 × 10¹² bits = 1 × 10¹² bytes.
The terabyte can be abbreviated as TB; for example, 1 terabyte can be written as 1 TB.
