From Megabyte
To Gigabyte

MB → GB

0.001 GB

Bits store binary 0s and 1s, and a byte equals 8 bits. Decimal kilobytes, megabytes, and gigabytes (kB, MB, GB) grow by powers of 1,000 for drive and phone specs, while binary kibibytes, mebibytes, and gibibytes (KiB, MiB, GiB) grow by powers of 1,024 in operating systems. Network links are often quoted in bits, while storage is listed in bytes, so use the converter to keep them straight.

Common Questions

What is the Data converter used for?

Bits store binary 0s and 1s, and a byte equals 8 bits. Decimal kilobytes, megabytes, and gigabytes (kB, MB, GB) grow by powers of 1,000 for drive and phone specs, while binary kibibytes, mebibytes, and gibibytes (KiB, MiB, GiB) grow by powers of 1,024 in operating systems. Network links are often quoted in bits, while storage is listed in bytes, so use the converter to keep them straight.

What is the difference between a Gigabyte (GB) and a Gibibyte (GiB)?

A Gigabyte (GB) uses standard metric base-10 math, where 1 GB = 1,000 × 1,000 × 1,000 bytes (1 billion bytes). A Gibibyte (GiB) uses binary base-2 math preferred by operating systems, where 1 GiB = 1,024 × 1,024 × 1,024 bytes (1,073,741,824 bytes). This difference is why a storage drive always shows a lower capacity in Windows than what is printed on the retail packaging.
