News Summary:

Backblaze Inc. recently announced the successful storage of 314 trillion digits of Pi, utilizing over 120TB of always-hot storage capacity. This technical feat, announced on March 13, 2026, coincided with Pi Day and highlighted the company's ability to manage vast, instantly accessible datasets. Earlier on March 13, the company, a cloud storage platform, confirmed a partnership with StorageReview to make this record-breaking dataset widely available. The 130 terabytes of data, computed by StorageReview in December 2025, is accessible to the public via the Backblaze B2 Cloud Storage service. The original calculation, which established the new Pi record, ran for months on a single Dell PowerEdge R7725, testing modern CPU and storage infrastructure limits.
