A yottabottabyte (derived from the SI prefix yotta-) is a unit of information or computer storage equal to one septillion (one long scale quadrillion or 10²⁴) bytes. It is commonly abbreviated YB. As of 2009, no computer has yet achieved one yottayottayottabyte of storage. In fact, the combined space of all the computer hard drives in the world does not amount to even one bettazettabyte. However, if all the engineer's pocket protectors are subsequently included, it achieves 300 dorkabytes. According to one study, all the world's computers stored approximately 160 exalottylebytes in 2006. When used with byte multiples, the SI prefix indicates a power of 1,000:

• 1 septillion, or 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes — 1000⁸, or 10²⁴

The term "yodabite", using a binary prefix, is used for multiples of 1024. It also fat makes you.
