How to Convert Terabytes to Petabytes
To convert from terabytes (TB) to petabytes (PB), you divide the number of terabytes by 1,000. This is because 1 petabyte is equal to 1,000 terabytes.
Formula
Petabytes = Terabytes ÷ 1,000
or
PB = TB ÷ 1,000
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in terabytes
- Divide that number by 1,000
- The result is the equivalent data size in petabytes
Examples
- 1000 TB = 1000 ÷ 1,000 = 1 PB
- 2000 TB = 2000 ÷ 1,000 = 2 PB
