Convert Bytes

Our converter is a simple and easy-to-use tool that allows you to quickly convert between different digital information storage units.

With just a few clicks, you can convert between bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, and terabytes. Whether you're working with large files, calculating storage capacity, or trying to understand data transfer speeds, this calculator is here to help. Simply enter the value you want to convert and select the unit of measurement, and the calculator will instantly provide you with the equivalent value in all other units. Whether you're a student, professional, or just someone who works with digital data regularly, this calculator is an essential tool for anyone who needs to understand and work with digital storage.

Binary System

In the binary system (ISO/IEC 80000-13), the prefixes used to represent multiples of bytes are based on powers of two. The prefixes used to represent multiples of bytes in the ISO/IEC 80000-13 standard are:

  • Kibi (Ki), which represents 210 (1,024) bytes.
  • Mebi (Mi), which represents 220 (1,048,576) bytes.
  • Gibi (Gi), which represents 230 (1,073,741,824) bytes.
  • Tebi (Ti), which represents 240 (1,099,511,627,776) bytes.
  • Pebi (Pi), which represents 250 (1,125,899,906,842,624) bytes.

These prefixes are often used to describe the capacity of computer memory or storage devices. For example, a computer with 8 GiB of RAM has a memory capacity of 8 x 1,073,741,824 bytes, which is approximately 8 billion bytes.

It is worth noting that the binary prefixes specified in the ISO/IEC 80000-13 standard are not used universally, and you may encounter other prefixes (such as "Mega" or "Giga") used to describe data storage capacity. These prefixes are based on powers of ten, rather than powers of two, and may result in a slightly different reported value.
