A yottabyte (derived from the SI prefix yotta-) is a unit of information or computer storage equal to one septillion (one long scale quadrillion or 1024) bytes. It is commonly abbreviated YB.
Because of irregularities in the definition and usage of terms for byte multiples, the exact number can be either one of the following:
1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes — 10008, or 1024.
1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 bytes — 10248, or 280.
Because of these irregularities, the term "yobibyte" has been proposed as an unambiguous reference to the latter value.

Are you referring to a Yottabyte? In marketing (That's pronounced liar) terms it would be would be 10^24 bytes or:
1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 bytes.
If you actually calculate it out, the real value would be something near:
1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 bytes

Yottabyte one septillion 10 to the 24th power bytes.
