    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gigabyte

    The gigabyte (/ ˈ ɡ ɪ ɡ ə b aɪ t, ˈ dʒ ɪ ɡ ə b aɪ t /) [1] is a multiple of the unit byte for digital information. The prefix giga means 10 9 in the International System of Units (SI). Therefore, one gigabyte is one billion bytes. The unit symbol for the gigabyte is GB.

    0.6–1.3 bits – approximate information per letter of English text. [3] 2 0: bit: 10 0: bit 1 bit – 0 or 1, false or true, Low or High (a.k.a. unibit) 1.442695 bits (log 2 e) – approximate size of a nat (a unit of information based on natural logarithms) 1.5849625 bits (log 2 3) – approximate size of a trit (a base-3 digit) 2 1

  4. Megabyte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megabyte

    In this convention, one thousand and twenty-four megabytes (1024 MB) is equal to one gigabyte (1 GB), where 1 GB is 1024 3 bytes (i.e., 1 GiB). Mixed 1 MB = 1 024 000 bytes (= 1000×1024 B) is the definition used to describe the formatted capacity of the 1.44 MB 3.5-inch HD floppy disk, which actually has a capacity of 1 474 560 bytes. [5]

  5. Units of information - Wikipedia

    These prefixes are more often used for multiples of bytes, as in kilobyte (1 kB = 8000 bit), megabyte (1 MB = 8 000 000 bit), and gigabyte (1 GB = 8 000 000 000 bit). However, for technical reasons, the capacities of computer memories and some storage units are often multiples of some large power of two, such as 2 28 = 268 435 456 bytes.

  6. Byte - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte

    An alternative system of nomenclature for the same units (referred to here as the customary convention), in which 1 kilobyte (KB) is equal to 1,024 bytes, [38] [39] [40] 1 megabyte (MB) is equal to 1024 2 bytes and 1 gigabyte (GB) is equal to 1024 3 bytes is mentioned by a 1990s JEDEC standard. Only the first three multiples (up to GB) are ...

  7. Giga- - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giga-

    The notation 1 GB represents 1,000,000,000 bytes or, in deprecated usage, 1,073,741,824 (2 30) bytes. Per IEC 60027-2 A.2 and ISO/IEC 80000 standards, the correct notation of 2 30 is gibi (symbol Gi). [14] One gibibyte (1 GiB) is 1,073,741,824 bytes or 1.074 GB. Despite international standards, the use of 1 GB = 2 30 B is widespread.

  9. Orders of magnitude (bit rate) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(bit_rate)

    The byte is the most common unit of measurement of information (megabyte, mebibyte, gigabyte, gibibyte, etc.). The decimal SI prefixes kilo, mega etc., are powers of 10. The power of two equivalents are the binary prefixes kibi, mebi, etc. Accordingly: 1 kB = 1000 bytes = 8000 bits; 1 KiB = 2 10 bytes = 1024 bytes = 8192 bits; 1 kbit = 125 ...
