mountaintree16 Posted June 6, 2010 ID:262573 Share Posted June 6, 2010 I was reading about Google's history on Wikipedia just now and I had no idea what a petabyte was when it was mentioned, so I followed the link in the article and here it is:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PetabyteI didn't know there was anything larger than a terabyte honestly, hehe, so I thought that I would share!

Jaxryley Posted June 17, 2010 ID:269019 Share Posted June 17, 2010 A bit of trivia on a "Zip Bomb".One example of a Zip bomb was the file "42.zip" which was 42 kilobytes of compressed data, containing six layers of nested zip files in sets of 16, each bottom layer archive containing a 4.2 gigabyte file for a total of 4.5 petabytes of uncompressed data.And no, I've never fully decompressed my sample.
