A petabyte is 1015 bytes of information. One petabyte is equal to 1,000 terabytes. Since peta indicates multiplication by the fifth power of 1,000, a petabyte is equal to one quadrillion (1,000,000,000,000,000) bytes, 1,000,000 GBs, or 1,000 TBs.
1 PB = 1000000000000000B = 1015bytes = 1000terabytes
Petabytes are more commonly used to measure the total data stored in large computer networks or server farms. For example, Internet companies like Google and Facebook store over 100 petabytes of data on their servers.
