Data Storage Converter

The Data Storage Converter lets you convert between commonly used digital data and storage units. You can convert bits, bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, terabytes, petabytes and binary units such as KiB, MiB, GiB, TiB and PiB.

Decimal Storage Units

Decimal storage units use powers of 1,000. For example, 1 kilobyte (KB) is 1,000 bytes, while 1 megabyte (MB) is 1,000,000 bytes.

1 KB = 1,000 bytes
1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes
1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes
1 TB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes

Binary Storage Units

Binary units use powers of 1,024. These units are identified by names such as kibibyte (KiB), mebibyte (MiB), gibibyte (GiB) and tebibyte (TiB).

1 KiB = 1,024 bytes
1 MiB = 1,048,576 bytes
1 GiB = 1,073,741,824 bytes
1 TiB = 1,099,511,627,776 bytes

Bits and Bytes

A bit is the smallest basic unit of digital information and can have a value of 0 or 1. One byte contains 8 bits.

1 Byte = 8 bits
