Exabyte

An exabyte is made up of multiple bytes, which stores the digital information and is used to denote data size. A byte is a size, which is made up of 8 bits. A bit is a single unit of data. A bit can be ‘0’ or ‘1’. ‘EB’ is a unit symbol for the exabyte. And the short form of Exabyte is Ebyte.

In the word exabyte, exa denotes the multiplication by the sixth power of 1000.

Exabyte is equivalent to the following values:

• 10¹⁸ bytes,
• 1000⁶ bytes,
• 1000 petabytes,
• 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 ( 1 quintillion) Bytes,
• 1 billion gigabytes,
• 1 million terabytes, or
• 1,000,000 terabytes.

And, 1000 EB (Exabyte) equals to 1ZB (Zettabyte). Exabytes is a unit, which is slightly smaller than the exbibytes. The exbibytes contain 2⁶⁰ bytes.

The exabyte unit is so large, so it is used to measure the sum of multiple storage networks or measure the data amount transferred over the internet in a specific amount of time.
