NIMCET 2011 — Computer PYQ

In computer storage terminology, each higher unit is approximately $1000$ times (specifically $1024$ in binary terms, but $1000$ in decimal/approximate terms) larger than the previous one.

The hierarchy of storage units is as follows:

• $1$ Kilobyte $(KB)=1024$ Bytes

• $1$ Megabyte $(MB)=1024$ Kilobytes

• $1$ Gigabyte $(GB)=1024$ Megabytes

• $1$ Terabyte $(TB)=1024$ Gigabytes

• $1$ Petabyte $(PB)=1024$ Terabytes

Since $1$ Petabyte $(PB)$ is exactly $1024$ Terabytes, it is approximately equal to $1000$ Terabytes.

Correct Option: (c)
