Binary convention (1 KB = 1024 bytes) — standard for storage, unlike the decimal convention used for network speeds.
How the Data Storage Converter Works
Converts digital data storage quantities between decimal byte prefixes (KB, MB, GB, TB, PB) and binary IEC kibibyte prefixes (KiB, MiB, GiB, TiB, PiB).
Conversion Example
Converting 1 Gigabyte (GB) in decimal (10⁹ = 1,000,000,000 bytes) vs binary Gibibyte (GiB, 2³⁰ = 1,073,741,824 bytes).
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does a 1TB hard drive display as approximately 931GB in Windows?
Manufacturers measure capacity in decimal (1 TB = 10¹² bytes), whereas systems like Windows use binary GiB (10¹² / 1024³ ≈ 931.32 GiB).
