Which of the following is larger than 1 gigabyte?
A
1 byte
B
1 kilobyte
C
1 terabyte
D
1 megabyte
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A terabyte is bigger than a gigabyte. A terabyte is equal to 1, 024 gigabytes (GB), which itself is equal to 1, 024 megabytes (MB), while a megabyte is equivalent to 1, 024 kilobytes. All storage measuring units–kilobyte, megabyte, terabyte, gigabyte, petabyte, exabyte and so on–are multiples of a byte.

Detailed explanation-2: -Therefore, after terabyte comes petabyte. Next is exabyte, then zettabyte and yottabyte. However, binary does not operate on the same scale as SI.

Detailed explanation-3: -Difference Between GB and TB Terabyte is greater than Gigabyte. GB has the prefix Giga. TB has the prefix Tera. Terabyte is 1000 times bigger than Gigabyte.

Detailed explanation-4: -The megabyte is a smaller quantity compared with the gigabyte. The gigabyte is bigger than the megabyte. MB is equivalent to one million bytes. GB is equivalent to one billion bytes.

Detailed explanation-5: -Notably, a terabyte is a thousand times bigger than a gigabyte. There are 1, 073, 741, 824 bytes in one gigabyte, one terabyte consists of 1, 099, 511, 627, 776 bytes. One of the easiest ways to remember this is that the prefix of all data measurement units remains the same, i.e., 1024.
