Petabyte, exabyte, zettabyte, yottabyte for powers of 1000 (1000 TB, 1000PB, 1000EB, 1000ZB)
pebibyte, exbibyte, zebibyte, yobiobyte for powers of 1024 (1024TiB, 1024PiB, 1024EiB, 1024ZiB)

A kilobyte (KB) is 1,024 bytes, not one thousand bytes as might be expected, because computers use binary (base two) math, instead of a decimal (base ten) system.
· 1 Bit = Binary Digit
· 8 Bits = 1 Byte
· 1024 Bytes = 1 Kilobyte
· 1024 Kilobytes = 1 Megabyte
· 1024 Megabytes = 1 Gigabyte
· 1024 Gigabytes = 1 Terabyte
· 1024 Terabytes = 1 Petabyte
· 1024 Petabytes = 1 Exabyte
· 1024 Exabytes = 1 Zettabyte
· 1024 Zettabytes = 1 Yottabyte
· 1024 Yottabytes = 1 Brontobyte
· 1024 Brontobytes = 1 Geopbyte

petabyte = 1015 bytes = 1000 terabytes
exabyte = 1018 bytes
zettabyte = 1021 bytes
yottabyte = 1024 bytes
For values based on 1024 rather than 1000:
tebibyte = 240 bytes = 1024 gibibytes (giga-binary-bytes)
pebibyte = 250 bytes
exbibyte = 260 bytes
zebibyte = 270 bytes
yobibyte = 280 bytes
