How many megabytes per day are two nibbles per nanosecond?

Question

One of my tables in my SQL database has a growth rate of two nibbles per nanosecond. I was wondering how many megabytes per day that is and should I be worried? My hard disk is 150 GB.

Answer 1

Wolfram Alpha to the rescue!

Answer 2

Two nibbbles == one byte. 1,000,000,000 bytes per second, or 953 megabytes per second.

Let's just say your HDD can't write that fast. If it could, it would be full in under 3 minutes.

Answer 3

Google says: 1 nibbles per nanosecond = 476.837158 megabytes per second

In other words: Yes, very worried indeed.

With this value you can imagine this huge ammount of data much better...
