eputies arrested a person after they seized more than 120 terabytes — or 120,000 gigabytes — of child porn from a home in Vallejo, the Solano County Sheriff's Office said Monday.

On Thursday, the sheriff's office said its investigators, along with Vacaville Police Department officers, searched the home of a person suspected of distributing and selling child porn.

There, along with the massive collection of illegal porn, the sheriff's office said it found 20 computers, a server and multiple anti-forensic and hacking tools. Photos shared by the sheriff's office indicate the home was an RV trailer.

The sheriff's office said investigators were led to the home after what it calls an earlier Sexual Assault Felony Enforcement (S.A.F.E.) street sweep, its ongoing operation into all sexual assault crimes.

Another way of putting the size of child porn seized is that 1 terabyte roughly equates to 120 hours of high-definition video.
