What are commonly used units of measuring storage?
1 Byte = 8 bits
1 KB = 1024 Bytes
1 MB = 1024 KB
1 GB = 1024 MB
1 TB = 1024 GB
1 PB = 1024 TB
1 EB = 1024 PB
Bit
Bit is a short for Binary Digit. 0 and 1 are the only binary digits. Bit is the smallest unit of measuring storage capacity. A bit can hold a 0 or 1.Byte
A combination of 8 bits is called a Byte. A byte can hold one character.1 Byte = 8 bits
Kilobyte (KB)
1024 bytes make one kilo byte. Kilo Byte is denoted by KB.1 KB = 1024 Bytes
Megabyte (MB)
1024 Kilo bytes make one mega byte. Mega Byte is denoted by MB.1 MB = 1024 KB
Gigabyte (GB)
1024 mega bytes make one Giga byte. Giga Byte is denoted by GB.1 GB = 1024 MB
Terabyte (TB)
1024 Giga bytes make one Tera byte. Tera Byte is denoted by TB.1 TB = 1024 GB
Petabyte (PB)
1024 Tera Bytes make one Peta byte. Peta Byte is denoted by PB.1 PB = 1024 TB
Exabyte (EB)
1024 Peta bytes make one Exa byte. Exa Byte is denoted by EB.1 EB = 1024 PB
