Frequently asked questions

How many MB are in a GB?

In decimal (SI) terms, 1 GB is 1,000 MB. In binary terms, 1 GiB is 1,024 MiB. Use the toggle to choose Decimal (1000) or Binary (1024). Drive makers and networks use decimal, while operating systems and memory often use binary.

What is the difference between GB and GiB?

A gigabyte (GB) is 1,000,000,000 bytes, while a gibibyte (GiB) is 1,073,741,824 bytes (1,024 cubed). The gap is about 7.4 percent and grows at larger sizes. In the tool, the binary option gives the GiB-style calculation for the same unit labels.

Why does my 500 GB drive show less space on my computer?

The drive is measured in decimal gigabytes, but some operating systems report binary units. 500 x 10^9 bytes divided by 1,024 cubed is about 465.66 GiB, which is the figure you see. No space is missing, it is just a different unit.

Which storage units can I convert?

Bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, terabytes and petabytes. The tool works in bytes and lets you choose decimal factors (each step is 1,000 times bigger) or binary factors (each step is 1,024 times bigger). It does not include bits, so multiply bytes by 8 for bits.

How many bytes are in a kilobyte?

Under the decimal (SI) definition, 1 KB is 1,000 bytes. Under the binary definition, 1 KiB is 1,024 bytes. Use the decimal option for storage marketing and networking figures and the binary option when working with memory or file sizes shown by many operating systems.

What is the difference between megabits and megabytes?

A byte is 8 bits, so 1 megabyte equals 8 megabits. Internet speeds are usually quoted in megabits per second, while file sizes are in megabytes. A 100 Mbps connection therefore downloads at most about 12.5 MB of data per second.

Is my data shared when using the Data Storage Converter?

No. Toolskyt operates under a zero-server policy. All calculations, data formatting, and file exports are executed locally on your machine.

Do I need to sign up or pay to use the Data Storage Converter?

No, this tool is 100% free. There are no limits, sign-ups, subscriptions, or hidden charges required.
