That's why i wonder why people keep opening their mouths wide hearing stuffs like 50 terabytes, Petabyte, Exabyte, Zettabyte, Yottabyte. People will not even need storage devices soon.

[b]Meanwhile Read this...........

143 millions lines are connected today in Nigeria, more than half of that are making use of the internet service on their Smartphones, PC's and Tablets. Almost all of that average use more than 1 gigabyte worth of data monthly. That is, the normal Johnny on the street probably spends an average of #2000 surfing the web every month and #24,000 yearly. The amount goes higher when you move up a level higher to you and me. What are we doing with the data? Just scrolling through pages, viewing pictures and videos or actually doing something that could boost our financial status.

While some people may argue that people just want to buy data to do these, i have no problem with that. But i am aware there is no man on the planet who is comfortable with where he is. Human wants are insatiable, thus the hunger for improvement in every sphere of human nature. If you are one of such persons who has gotten to that point where you just don't feel right being on a Trillion Dollar per month platform which is the internet and not even able to make a single dollar off it, then this is for you.

Buh I tell you,the files that this 5MB can store on it , 32gig of 2day can't store it

#IronyOfLife


Buh the thing funny ogrin
See as dem carry 5MB gringringringrin presently sef,person no fit carry laptop with 250GIG like dat,just your baggrin


5MB of data will remain 5MB even after 50 years. Data doesn't shrink unless compressed... so don't say 32GB hard drive capacity of today is lesser than that of this 5MB hard drive
