Understanding Storage Units
SI (Decimal)Decimal (SI) Units - Powers of 1000
- 1 KB = 1,000 bytes
- 1 MB = 1,000 KB = 1,000,000 bytes
- 1 GB = 1,000 MB
- 1 TB = 1,000 GB
- Used by: Storage manufacturers, networking, SI standard
IEC (Binary)Binary (IEC) Units - Powers of 1024
- 1 KiB = 1,024 bytes
- 1 MiB = 1,024 KiB = 1,048,576 bytes
- 1 GiB = 1,024 MiB
- 1 TiB = 1,024 GiB
- Used by: Operating systems (Windows, Linux, macOS), RAM
Example: A 500 GB hard drive (decimal/SI) shows as ~465 GiB (binary/IEC) in your OS. Both are correct — they just use different standards. This converter shows both.
