Storage on the iDevices is measured in gigabytes, e.g. 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB and so on. I'm sure there are terrabyte drives for the Mac, but your iDevices use solid state drives, and if terrabyte solid state drives exist, they would be prohibitively expensive.

So, if the machines are in gigabytes, are there terrabyte drives for Mac? 
Really curious about storage. I am thinking of going to at least 32 when 
upgrading, but I guess at mercy of my money situation and what help I can get 
as upgrade. Maybe will love iPad maybe with great storage and I will keep my 
4s. Hmmm, guess I will make some decisions right around Christmas.

Hi:
The phones and the IPads are actually in gigabytes not megabytes. So
they are 16, 32 and 64 gigabytes. If they were 16 megabytes for
example you would only be able to hold 4 or 5 songs on a unit. As to
what size you should get that is really only a question you can answer
(and yes I hate that answer). It depends on what you can afford
though. If you plan to use it for other things than a phone I would
probably go with at least the 32gb version. That way you can hold
several hundred songs as well as books and however many apps you want.
I hope that helps a bit.

Hello all,
Have a question which may be comparing oranges to apples, no pun intended :)
On iPad, iPhone Mac, etc. I see talk of 16 MB 32 MB etc. On the other hand,
Windows has 1 terabyte hard drives. Never have I seen the Apple products say
gig or Terabyte. Can someone clear these differences up for me? I understand
smart phones have smaller drives, but do the windows phones or even Android
talk in MB? Also, do you think I would be better to upgrade to a 32 or 64? I
have deffinitely found I use my phone more for things other than calling. I
will also be receiving an iPad shortly. Will it also be in MB? Sorry for all
the questions, but I want to understand. Thanks to anyone who can tackle
these questions for a non-techie brain!
