About these measurements

Data storage expresses a number of bits or bytes.

The base reference used here is the byte. One kilobit is 125 base units; one mebibit is 131,072 base units.

Important distinctions

Decimal prefixes use powers of 1,000; binary prefixes use powers of 1,024. One byte is eight bits.

Precision

The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
