The Internet Archive Wayback Machine contains over 100 terabytes of data and is currently growing at a rate of 12 terabytes per month. This eclipses the amount of text contained in the world's largest libraries, including the Library of Congress. If you tried to place the entire contents of the archive onto floppy disks (we don't recommend this!) and laid them end to end, it would stretch from New York, past Los Angeles, and halfway to Hawaii. What type of machinery is used in this Internet Archive? The Internet Archive is stored on dozens of slightly modified Hewlett Packard servers. The computers run on the FreeBSD operating system. Each computer has 512Mb of memory and can hold just over 300 gigabytes of data on IDE disks.
