About Byte (B)
The standard unit of digital information storage per IEC 80000-13:2008 (Quantities and units — Information science and technology). A byte is 8 bits — the smallest addressable unit on most modern computer architectures (x86, ARM, RISC-V, POWER) and the natural unit for storing a single ASCII character (US-ASCII 1968 standard, codes 0-127) or a single byte of UTF-8 (variable-length 1-4 byte Unicode encoding per RFC 3629). The 8-bit byte became the de facto standard with IBM System/360 (1964) and was formalized by ISO/IEC 2382-1 + the C99 + C++03 language standards. Historical systems used different byte widths: 6-bit (CDC 3000, Univac 1100), 7-bit (DEC PDP-10), 9-bit (DEC PDP-12, Honeywell 6000). Reference values: 1 byte stores 1 ASCII character, 2-4 bytes for Unicode/UTF-8/UTF-16/UTF-32, 8 bytes for a 64-bit integer or double-precision float (IEEE 754).
About Terabyte (TB)
A unit of digital storage equal to 1,099,511,627,776 bytes (= 1,024⁴ = 2⁴⁰ bytes) in the binary (computing) convention, or 1,000,000,000,000 bytes (= 10¹²) in the decimal (SI marketing) convention — the difference is 10%, so '1 TB' marketed hard drives show as '931 GB' in OS. Reference values: typical hard disk drive (HDD) consumer capacity 1-22 TB (Seagate IronWolf Pro 22 TB, WD Red Pro 22 TB enterprise drives); typical desktop SSD 500 GB - 8 TB; modern professional video production (4K + 8K) requires 10-100 TB workflow storage; the entire genome of a single human ~3.2 GB compressed, but a full whole-genome FASTQ + BAM dataset ~200-300 GB; the Hubble Space Telescope's lifetime archive ~150 TB; CERN's Large Hadron Collider produces ~50 PB/year of raw data (~50,000 TB). Consumer NAS (network attached storage) Synology DiskStation + QNAP TS-series typically configured 8-32 TB usable. Modern PCIe Gen 5 NVMe SSDs (Samsung 990 Pro, WD Black SN850X) reach 12,400 MB/s sequential read.

Understanding Bytes
The Byte (symbol: B) is a unit of data storage. The standard unit of digital information storage per IEC 80000-13:2008 (Quantities and units — Information science and technology). A byte is 8 bits — the smallest addressable unit on most modern computer architectures (x86, ARM, RISC-V, POWER) and the natural unit for storing a single ASCII character (US-ASCII 1968 standard, codes 0-127) or a single byte of UTF-8 (variable-length 1-4 byte Unicode encoding per RFC 3629).
