    that’s neat and all but the headline reads a lot like those usb batteries advertisements claiming 15000 mAh capacity - the big number means it’s better! but lol no it’s only 15amps.

    200tb enterprise level storage is good - if it has a really long shelf life, like 10+ years. your critical backups are only good if the data doesnt degrade or the storage media doesnt fail when you’re doing a DR.

      The batteries are measured in mAh because phone batteries are; that has a good reason (unlike measuring in bits, to my knowledge)

        or nibbles! yeah, modern storage media is such that anything under 1mb is noticeable, even though many documents are that size.
