An exabyte is equal to 1,024 petabytes
A zettabyte is equal to 1,024 exabytes

Extra info:
A yottabyte is equal to 1,024 zettabytes

actually, 10E100 is not correct either... a google is defined as a 1 followed by 100 zeros... therefore, 10E100 = 10x10^100 = a 1 followed by 101 zeros != a one followed by 100 zeros.

Doh I got it wrong! If it was E10, then yes it would be 99.
If you note it as E1, then it is 100. It's all just symantecs. Which by the way is an awesome stock hehe.

My Fiberoptic YBPS you would be able to download the entire web in seconds, yet you would need alot of terrabyte servers, which I believe NASA sells when there old, I am to tired and lazy to solve the Terra to Yotta, but...that would be cool. ANd on the other hand you wouldn't need a hard drive, just 10 terrabytes of SDRX RAMBUS FRAM and load everything in memory... of course Intels recent recall, could set you back on processing time!!!
