Next newsStorage provider Capricorn said that it has installed a total of 1.5 PetaByte (PByte) of storage space for the Internet Archive , best known for its "Wayback Machine". According to the Internet Archive, the organization currently stores about 40 billion web pages on its servers.
Capricorn said it recently completed a shipment of a 1 PByte (1,048,576 GByte) storage system that compares to over 600 clustered storage computers with 2500 spinning disks. Named "PetaBox", the system consumes about 50 kilowatts of power per PByte.
