Ancient Ice In Space.. and other websites

I can't begin to imagine the size of the storage facility required to hold all of this data - needless to say it's quite an incredible service!

You got me curious, I had to know.....

The Internet Archive data center now houses ~3PB of PetaBox storage technology and is expanding steadily.

That's only 3000 odd Terabyte HDD's if they used recent hardware

It's a shame not all the old images work, it's intermixing new and old because they have the same filenames..
