Byte (B)1000000
Kilobyte (KB)1000
Megabyte (MB)0.001

Kibibyte (KiB)953.6743164
Mebibyte (MiB)0.9313225746
Gibibyte (GiB)Decimal vs. Binary Units
Storage manufacturers typically use decimal units (1 KB = 1000 bytes), while operating systems often report binary units (1 KiB = 1024 bytes) — which is why a "1 TB" drive shows less than 1 TB of usable space in your file explorer. This converter supports both so you can compare accurately.
Common Use Cases
- File size checks: Convert file sizes between megabytes and gigabytes before uploading or emailing.
- Cloud storage plans: Compare storage plan sizes across providers.
- Bandwidth planning: Convert download sizes to estimate transfer times.
- Hard drive shopping: Understand advertised vs. actual usable capacity.
