Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between MB and MiB?

MB (megabyte) uses the decimal system: 1 MB = 1,000 KB = 1,000,000 bytes. MiB (mebibyte) uses the binary system: 1 MiB = 1,024 KiB = 1,048,576 bytes. Storage manufacturers use MB, while operating systems often use MiB.

Why does my hard drive show less space than advertised?

Hard drive manufacturers use decimal units (1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes), while your OS reports in binary units (1 GiB = 1,073,741,824 bytes). A 500 GB drive shows about 465 GiB in your OS.

How many MB in a GB?

In decimal (SI): 1 GB = 1,000 MB. In binary (IEC): 1 GiB = 1,024 MiB. This tool supports both systems.

What unit is used for internet speed?

Internet speeds are typically measured in Mbps (megabits per second), not MBps (megabytes per second). 1 byte = 8 bits, so 100 Mbps ≈ 12.5 MBps.

What is the largest file size unit?

Common units go up to TB (terabyte) and PB (petabyte). Beyond that are exabytes (EB), zettabytes (ZB) and yottabytes (YB). This tool covers bytes through petabytes.
