as for floppy's, it's good to always have a USB floppy drive handy.

Damm Zettabyte will be like trillions hardly used as its too big.

But then as is so often said size doesn't matter..it's what you do with it that counts.

Very true its how you work it, USB drive that is

a Zettabyte is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes or 1,180,591,620,717,411,303,424 bytes if your proper.

although I heard a rumour that VM were starting to trial a 'up to' 20 yottabyte connection.

I remember showing off my massive 1.2gig Quantum Bigfoot not so many years ago.
I then wondered if I would ever get close to filling the thing!


Today I have 430gig of boot aray and just under 500gig of storage array.

lol, the bigfoots where those 5.25" hdds arent they? I only ever saw one, it was a 12GB I think and at the time we thought we could never fill it. I had 3.2GB at the time and with all my stuff installed etc I could only use about 75%.
