"The Internet Archive has reached a major preservation milestone, recording a
staggering 1 trillion web pages (1 followed by 12 zeros!) since it began
backing up the World Wide Web nearly three decades ago.
The vast collection, equivalent to more than 100,000TB of data, or around 21.3
million DVDs, is available through its Wayback Machine, a tool which allows
users to explore archived versions of websites from across the internet’s
history.
Since it began life in 1996, the Internet Archive has partnered with over 1,200
libraries and institutions to craft a shared digital library with a mission is
to safeguard online content that might otherwise disappear."
