Make sure to make the specific term "Computer Ounce", or co. oz.

Better yet, just use "cooz" as the "common unit"

Then it's proportioned following fluid ounce measurements from there. e.g. "coc" (computer cup) is 16 coozes.

I second this. It makes total sense - computer memory is a volume to be filled with data. They ain't call parts of a hard drive volumes for nothing.
