Data Storage Converter

Bytes through terabytes, in both decimal (GB) and binary (GiB).

Quick answer: Convert computer data storage units online. Translate safely between Megabytes (MB), Gigabytes (GB), and binary (GiB) formats.

Bytes → Kilobytes (1000)0.001

exact international definitions — computed locally

Convert file and drive sizes across bytes, KB/MB/GB/TB and their binary siblings KiB/MiB/GiB.

How it works

  1. Choose the storage unit format (Decimal GB vs Binary GiB).
  2. Input the file size or drive capacity.
  3. The tool processes the bit-math locally to show exact bytes and multiples.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my 1 TB drive show 931 GB?

It holds 10¹² bytes; your OS reports in binary GiB (1024³), and 10¹² ÷ 1024³ ≈ 931.

Which should I use?

Match your context: storage products use decimal; RAM and many OS displays use binary.

Bits vs bytes?

8 bits = 1 byte. Internet speeds are usually megabits (Mb), file sizes megabytes (MB) — an 8× difference.
