Overview

Convert between bytes (B), kilobytes (KB), megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB), terabytes (TB), and more. Supports both binary (1024-based) and decimal (1000-based) conversions.

Formula

Binary (IEC):
1 KiB = 1024 B
1 MiB = 1024 KiB = 1,048,576 B
1 GiB = 1024 MiB = 1,073,741,824 B
1 TiB = 1024 GiB

Decimal (SI):
1 KB = 1000 B
1 MB = 1000 KB = 1,000,000 B
1 GB = 1000 MB = 1,000,000,000 B
1 TB = 1000 GB

How to Use

1. 1Enter the data size value to convert.
2. 2Select the source unit (B, KB, MB, GB, TB).
3. 3Select the target unit.
4. 4Choose binary (1024) or decimal (1000) base.
5. 5View the converted result.

Tips

• ✔Hard drive manufacturers use decimal (1000-based) units, which is why OS-reported capacity appears smaller.
• ✔Network speeds use bits (bit), while file sizes use bytes (Byte). 1 Byte = 8 bits.
• ✔An internet speed of 100 Mbps translates to roughly 12.5 MB/s download speed.
• ✔Always check whether binary or decimal units are being used when comparing cloud storage plans.
