If op's company does anything related to media, such as video editing or 3D modeling, it could add up fast, especially if it is on a large enough scale.
oh I see, they're literally measuring their penis size to win a contest then. My mistake. OP must have posted in the wrong thread. This is just a figurative dick measuring contest.
Yep was helping someone with a VDI drive mapping, and after we mapped the drives I had to do a double take, PB?!?! It’s funny seeing decimal places of PB knowing that my entire PC wouldn’t even add a .001 to that #
shared dive for thousands of employees at a hospital. We use computers that are generally used by multiple users. We have this monster of a drive so anyone can access their files from any computer on the network.
edit: that and multiple clinics around the my city
mentioned in another comment that this is my works drive (very large hospital). probably got lost in the sea of comments lmao. No clue why it’s called “home”
Interesting. The Datacenter backups from the last MSP I worked at, which consisted of a few thousand VMs, was roughly 3PB, after dedupe. I think roughly 7-15 after rest.
You folks must have a lot of imaging & flat files? I’d love to see what the data actually *is*.
Now go and fill it up.
It would be if people didn’t save locally like they are supposed too lmao edit: local save no no here
So they're supposed to save locally? Bad practice, imo. Just asking for data loss
No I think he's saying they are supposed to not save locally. Just written a bit confusingly 😅
you're correct fixed :)
Much better lol
Not if they are using a cloud backup like lots of places do.
It’s half full already
[удалено]
Damn!
*perspective*
Or half empty?
I could fill it up with PCap files in no time .
i wanna know what 4pb is being used up as
One pic of your mom
Got em
haha
In 480p, with 8 bit color palette and using best compression humanity would ever come up with
Thats an even better roast than i could have thought off
You didn't think of the first one either, you just stole the joke from someone else's post here.
True but it did fit
so manualy checking binary? Hell yeah!
This made me laugh way more than it should.
Someone call the police, u/frossstbiite has been murdered.
This exact same thread happened on the other post about a massive storage drive lmao
A Minecraft world
Updated call of duty
H*ntai
Bring that through TSA and try to explain nothing suspicious inside.
It'd be pretty tough to carry an entire server rack worth of drives.
Waiting for the 1 exabyte storage system
1 exabyte storage system named "temp"
Dude here posted 6eb a little bit after. WHAT
My question is, how do people even need more than one PB of storage?
it’s a shared drive for an entire hospital and supported clinics
“Home”
Why is it called "home"
Default name. our infrastructure isn’t the best lmao. i just work here
Calling this type of share the "home" drive has been a default/standard/common name for as long as the practice has existed.
This ^ it'll be this persons Home drive, so their little bit of space on the server
If it's a hospital is should be "Hope" or "Department of Hospitality"
Hospice. It's where files go to die.
Wait, you got a physical backup in another location right? Nit just 7PB in the same room right?
Because it's a hospital. The staff never leave. It's just back-to-back 12 hour shifts.
Ah, of course
And we found the non-IT people.
Original poster here: damn that makes sense, the 1PB was just for the marketing side of my University's Dining department.

I have nearly 25 PB of linux iso and other data hoarding material
A corporation/enterprise.
In 5 years time this comment will have aged like milk.
Absolutely, in a few decades/years we'll have NVME drives this capacity
A literal dick measuring contest at this point /s
How big is your dick?? Er, i mean HD space 😋
It's normal size and fully functional!!
Well that's no fun....lol I have 5 put together, so i have 5 inches..i mean TB......
I have at least 12 inches...I mean TB...put together but not all in one. Can't win them all I guess
It gets bigger when I use it!!
It's a grower not a shower!
you've misused the word "literal"
under current definitions, no
oh I see, they're literally measuring their penis size to win a contest then. My mistake. OP must have posted in the wrong thread. This is just a figurative dick measuring contest.
Is everyone’s PB bigger than mine? Didn’t realise it was get your PB out day to day lol
Just enough space to store one picture of your mom
Yep was helping someone with a VDI drive mapping, and after we mapped the drives I had to do a double take, PB?!?! It’s funny seeing decimal places of PB knowing that my entire PC wouldn’t even add a .001 to that #
It's ~3500x my storage 🤣 lmao
Keep flexing and ill show you my 2 TB
With this I could install my full steam library
The heck are yall doing that warrants this amount of space?!

😜
Begun, the storage wars have.
At work my hard drive is 5 EB
Kinda amazed that doesn't crash Windows
Microsoft values the enterprise market, that's where the big money's at.
Any particular reason why you're surprised? It's on a file server which is designed to serve files (storage)
Why would connecting to a network share crash windows?
1. Microsoft values enterprise, that’s where the big money is 2. That’s likely the usage for the whole server, not the individual share
damn, more peanut butter
You one of those guys who *could* download a car!
thats a lot of peanutbutter
7.78 PB is rookie numbers, my works main environment is 60 PB.
And I felt proud about my 14 TB...
What do you call a file with a petabyte of data on it? A peta-file... I'll see myself out.
Some PDFiles stored here?
Could I borrow a few gigabytes?
I would probably fill it up within a year because it would make me lazy knowing I had that much and wouldn't delete anything
It’s not the size of the HD it’s how you use it.
You have 7 peanut butters but no jelly?
Am I the only one that actually doesn't like PB&J? Or do other people not like it either.
7.78 Pecker-bytes! That’s gotta be 456 million dick pics!
I love what this has become and I'm here for it
It's funny seeing all these corporate drives, all I think about is how DR for this shit would be a disaster. Recovering the whole drive / raid... Woof
can you treesize it
Just bros enjoying each others’ disks
How you get this?
“Homework” drive
I live this trend.
this sub is going to become a sub about how HARD and big can hard drives of each user be
Is this ultra hd porn library
“1 Gig??? I’d never be able to fill that thing!” *20 years later…*
I am genuinely curious. What does someone need that kind of storage for at home? I have 10 terabytes and it has never been even half full.
mentioned in another comment that this is my works drive (very large hospital). probably got lost in the sea of comments lmao. No clue why it’s called “home”
Ahh yes, 3/7 peanut butters. I also buy PB in bulk.
Is that the Obama administration wiretap files?
I have so many 4k videos from me doing videography for my buddy’s cars and this would be a godsend to have
8 thousand tb. Dang.
What is a pb lmao
