Just crossed 1PB total upload, felt like bragging a bit. I'm sure others who have been at this for years and years would put my numbers to shame, but I was excited to see that 4th digit tick over! :)

Don't you need another dozen or so TB? I thought it was 1024, not 1000, to the next unit

Yeah you're technically correct, which I'm told is the best kind!

Correct 1 PiB = 1024 TiB. That’s why the lower case i is shown to denote they’re using base 2 instead of base 10.

But the good news is that 1011 TiB = 1.1 PB so OP actually crossed that milestone a while ago.

I hate this shit. Nobody gave a shit about GiB until companies just had to enshitify hard drives. When I was a kid 1GB was 1024 MB end of discussion, nobody was counting anything in base 10.
