This converter supports 16 units in total, including Bits, Bytes, Kilobytes, Megabytes, and covers metric, imperial and Chinese traditional systems.
In the digital age, data storage conversion concerns every netizen. When buying a phone or hard drive, the GB advertised by manufacturers is base-1000, while operating systems display capacity based on base-1024 GiB—this is why a 500GB hard drive shows as less than 465GB.
All values follow internationally accepted definitions and are rounded to the decimals you choose. The calculation runs entirely in your browser, so nothing is uploaded or stored on a server.
History & Background
Early computer storage media used bits and bytes as basic units. As capacities grew, prefixes like K, M, and G were introduced. To resolve ambiguity, the IEC introduced binary prefixes (KiB, MiB, GiB) in 1998 to distinguish them from decimal SI prefixes.
Conversion Details
Data storage conversion is based on bytes (B).
Common conversions: 1 byte = 8 bits, 1 GB = 1,000 MB (decimal), 1 GiB = 1,024 MiB (binary).
