If MB="meg", GB="gig", then TB="..." ?

I like "tribs." Especially when two chicks do that.

TBite

I've said that one before. And I've heard it said before. So therefore, it wins.

We want to get the 'r' in there somewhere, especially if we feel the need to distinguish between tebibytes (how much is that?) and terabytes.

So..."terbs"? "Tribs"?

I like "Terbs", although it would be unfortunate if the 'b' was mispronounced as a 'd'...

"Tebibyte" is actually the base 2 number (2^40), whereas "terabyte" is base 10 (10^12) apparently:

I rarely hear someone say someone say, "63 KB". They usually say, "63 K", regardless of the official abbreviation.

Agree, I think "K" is a much more common term than kilobyte -- both of which are rarely heard these days.

My guess would be "T" or Terra.
