Cómo usar esta calculadora
- Enter an amount of data.
- Choose decimal units (kB, MB, GB = powers of 1,000) or binary units (KiB, MiB, GiB = powers of 1,024).
Fórmula
Storage manufacturers use decimal prefixes, while operating systems often show binary sizes. That's why a 1 TB drive appears as about 931 GiB.
1 byte = 8 bits
1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes
1 GiB = 1,073,741,824 bytes (2³⁰)
1 Mbit = 125,000 bytes
Examples
- 1 TB = 10¹² B ÷ 2³⁰ ≈ 931.32 GiB.
- A 100 Mbit/s connection transfers 12.5 MB per second.
Preguntas frecuentes
Why does my 1 TB drive show less space?
The drive has 10¹² bytes, but Windows reports sizes in binary units (labelled 'GB' but meaning GiB), giving about 931.
Is internet speed in bits or bytes?
Bits. Divide Mbit/s by 8 to get megabytes per second.
What do KiB, MiB and GiB mean?
Kibibyte, mebibyte and gibibyte: binary units defined by the IEC to remove ambiguity.
