1 GB (decimal) = 1,000 MB. 1 GiB (binary) = 1,024 MiB. 8 bits = 1 byte.
FAQ
- Why does my 1 TB drive show less?
- Drive makers use decimal terabytes (1,000 GB) while operating systems often report binary tebibytes, so the same drive reads smaller.
- What is the difference between MB and MiB?
- MB is 1,000,000 bytes (decimal); MiB is 1,048,576 bytes (binary).
- How many bits in a byte?
