As a computer guy, just say, what's bigger? A gigabyte or a terabyte? That's the difference between a million and a billion.

Gigabyte is a billion bytes, terabyte is a trillion bytes. But yes, relatively speaking, you're correct.

For clarity, the scale in difference is the same between a terabyte and a gigabyte as compared to a billion and a million (a factor of 1000). But a gigabyte is not a million bytes and a terabyte is not a billion bytes Kilo = thousand Mega = million Giga = billion Tera = trillion
