[Dehan]

Ah. That's cool. How much did you pay for it?

In general, the rules of data multiplication goes by 1024. It takes 1024 bytes to get to a kb, 1024 kb to make a mb, and 1024 to make a gb. And so on, and so forth.

So, just wondering, what the fuck do you need 2 TB's worth of space for?

He's just ahead of the curve, if you've noticed how massively the numbers of computer specs have jumped in the last five or six years or so.
