Could this be translated as "billions and billions" or "billions upon billions"?

[dendory]

Literally it says billions of billions, but in context it most likely means billions upon billions.

[mortehu]

Why? Petabytes seems like a more likely order of magnitude than gigabytes, doesn't it?

eta: From the article: "capable of managing dozens of petaoctets of data, in other words dozens of millions of gigaoctets"

[bnegreve]

Actually 'zillions' is probably the most accurate translation.

No. The correct translation is "billions of billions"
