This conversion is commonly needed for photography and video storage, backup and archival planning, file storage and management. Terabytes are used for hard drives, cloud storage, and enterprise data.

To put petabyte in perspective: about 500 billion pages of standard text. In terabyte, common references include a large external hard drive (1–4 TB).
