Sure. There are lots of things bigger than a terabyte. But for completeness, I will go through all of them.

• 1000 Bytes = 1 Kilobyte
• 1000 Kilobytes = 1 Megabyte
• 1000 Megabytes = 1 Gigabyte
• 1000 Gigabytes = 1 Terabyte
• 1000 Terabytes = 1 Petabyte
• 1000 Petabytes = 1 Exabyte - In 2000, 3 exabytes of information was created
• 1000 Exabytes = 1 Zettabyte
• 1000 Zettabyte = 1 Zottabyte
• 1000 Zottabyte = 1 Brontobyte - that is a 1 followed by 27 zeroes
