I love it how in one paragraph they state that capacity has increased over 3 (decimal) orders of magnitude but there is a magical hard cap of 2T (only a factor 4 removed from where we stand today). If that's correct then 2^10 = 1000, over 10 years that's one doubling per year so we are 2 years away from reaching the ceiling in SD cards. You read it first on the BBC website.

The article seems widely confused. It goes from SD cards to 4K movies to HD movie storage to the cloud.

Obviously the cloud is just a pile of SD cards connected together.

Is that a physical limit or a filesystem limit?
