That can't be true, as all the data is currently on a number of HDDs...and always will be!
How many 1TB HDD would it take to download the internet?

Then no-one would be able to reply to your thread.
It may be that what most people mean when they ask the size of the Internet is how many bytes it takes up. Estimating that is a fairly difficult task, but one person made an estimate not so long ago who can probably be trusted to have a good idea. Eric Schmidt, the CEO of Google, the world’s largest index of the Internet, estimated the size at roughly 5 million terabytes of data. That’s over 5 billion gigabytes of data, or 5 trillion megabytes. Schmidt further noted that in its seven years of operations, Google has indexed roughly 200 terabytes of that, or .004% of the total size.
Have you checked them recently? One of mine was unreadable. Entire backup, ruined.
This. Think about it. The HDDs you're using are connected to the internet. You'll have to back them up then. And then you'll have to back up the backups because they're connected...
I have a few hundred. Over to you!
