Last week I ran across a very cool digital storage device from Tsecond . The BRYCK offers a staggering one petabyte of solid state storage in a compact form factor.

Better yet, it is air cooled. Imagine a single storage device that can be left in place for remote collection.

You’re getting data center levels of storage in a small box you can carry around.

A petabyte (PB) is a unit of digital storage equal to 1,000 terabytes (TB) or 1,000,000 gigabytes (GB). To put it in perspective, one petabyte can store roughly:

• 200,000 DVDs worth of data (assuming a standard DVD holds about 4.7 GB).

• 250 million songs in MP3 format (assuming an average song size of 4 MB).

• 500 billion pages of plain text (assuming 2 KB per page).

• Enough video to stream 1080p HD content for over 3 years
