Chip Childers commented on CLOUDSTACK-350:
------------------------------------------

The conversion should figure out what the meaningful *summary level* unit should be.  For example, I would like to see the number in PBs when it's greater than 1,024 TBs.

> UI reports storage seemingly at the byte level, with numbers like this: 
> 105689374720
> Why aren't there units, and if you must use really low level units like bytes, at least add commas to make it a bit more easily parseable. That said bytes is a really non-practical unit of measure for a cloud - MB, or even GB - and in some cases TB would be far more useful.
