You are correct, it was TB. This brings back memories of my first hard drive, which was 30MB at a time when 5.25 inch floppy discs were king. At the time I thought "How will I ever fill this?"

I waited for the 10MB drives to be released. The cost of the 10MB drive with a SASI interface (later modified and renamed to SCSI) was $2560 US.

nothing of my personal stuff is important enough to care if it survives thousands of years. For the real serious stuff there is microfiche paired with preservative storage.
