About gigabytes and gibibytes
Gigabyte (GB)
A decimal gigabyte is 1,000,000,000 bytes (1,000 MB). It is used for storage capacity of drives and phones and for data plans.
Gibibyte (GiB)
A gibibyte is 1,073,741,824 bytes (2^30, or 1,024 MiB). It is used for RAM and for sizes reported by some operating systems.
Both are units of digital information; the base unit used internally is bit.
Notes
- Decimal: 1 kB = 1000 bytes, 1 MB = 1000 kB, 1 GB = 1000 MB. Binary: 1 KiB = 1024 bytes, 1 MiB = 1024 KiB, 1 GiB = 1024 MiB.
- 1 TB = 1000 GB = 10¹² bytes and 1 TiB = 1024 GiB = 2⁴⁰ bytes (1,099,511,627,776 bytes).
- 1 byte = 8 bits. Data rates are not yet included. Quantities cannot be negative.
