Data Storage Converter

Unit Converters

B, KB, MB, GB, TB, PB

Quick Answer

Data Storage Converter: B, KB, MB, GB, TB, PB. Data Storage Converter uses standard unit conversion formulas to compute accurate results instantly.

SI (disk vendors): 1 GB = 10⁹ B · IEC (OS display): 1 GiB = 1024³ B ≈ 1.074 GB · 1 B = 8 bits
0.931323GiB (1024³)

1 GB (10⁹) = 0.931323 GiB (1024³) · 1 GiB (1024³) = 1.073742 GB (10⁹)

Conversion steps

  1. 1Unit relation: 1 GB (10⁹) = 0.931323 GiB (1024³)
  2. 2Substitute: 1.000000 × 0.931323
  3. 3Result: 1.000000 GB (10⁹) = 0.931323 GiB (1024³)

Quick reference

1 KB1000 B (SI)
1 KiB1024 B (IEC)
1 GB≈0.931 GiB
1 TB diskshows ≈931 GiB
1 MB8 Mbit
1 GiB≈1.074 GB
Why disks look "smaller": vendors label 1 GB = 10⁹ B while the OS shows 1 GiB = 1024³ B, so a 1 TB disk appears as ≈931 GiB. This is normal, not a defect.
