1 Terabyte = 1,000 Gigabytes = 1,000,000 Megabytes = 1,000,000,000 Kilobytes = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. There are roughly 23 lines on a double-spaced page with 80 characters per line. Each character is a byte, so a single page is 80 x 23 = 1840 bytes. Thus 350 terabytes would be approximately 190.2 billion pages.
