Microsoft struck the opening salvo, but I expect Google Drive, Dropbox, Box, and others to follow suit. With advances in technology, we have a lot of potential storage space available to us. With digital photography, it is possible to take a lot of photos without ever having to worry about development costs, so maybe 300,000 pictures is not out of the question. How would you even catalog that many photos? By time, by subject, by category? Suddenly, we are facing big data issues in our personal lives, and we are going to need similar tools to be able to make sense of all of our potential data stores.

You could fit even more if you used a compression algorithm. You could fit approximately 310,000 photos in one terabyte. I do know people who have that many movies in their library, so it is possible that they could build a database of movies to fill that space.

Assuming each movie is roughly 120 minutes long, that would be about 250 movies. You could fit approximately 500 hours worth of movies on one terabyte.

How many songs do you have on your iTunes right now? I cannot read that fast, nor do I have that much life left in me.Īssuming that an average song takes up five megabytes, one terabyte could fit approximately 200,000 songs or 17,000 hours of music. It has taken me nearly two months to read this book so it would take 66,076 months or 5,506 years to read my entire library.

I am currently reading the book “John Adams” by David McCullough it is approximately 650 pages long which means I could archive about 132,152 books of similar size. Now, if you can truly generate that much content, you have a serious archiving task on your hands. It is estimated that 85,899,345 pages of Word documents would fill one terabyte. I really wonder how much storage is enough? Can I really generate and save enough Word, PowerPoint, or Excel files to fill one terabyte? I decided to dig into it further to see just what will fill 1,000 gigabytes. Office 365 is a solution where the end user pays a monthly fee for the MS Office suite along with hosted storage on OneDrive. I read an article a couple of weeks ago about Microsoft raising the Office 365 storage limit to one terabyte.
