Bits and Bytes

When you start talking about lots of bytes, you get into prefixes like kilo, mega and giga, as in kilobyte, megabyte and gigabyte. The following table shows the binary multipliers:

Name Abbr. Size
Kilo Bytes KB 2^10 Bytes = 1,024 Bytes
Mega Bytes MB 2^20 Bytes = 1,048,576 Bytes
Giga Bytes GB 2^30 Bytes = 1,073,741,824 Bytes
Tera Bytes TB 2^40 Bytes = 1,099,511,627,776 Bytes
Peta Bytes PB 2^50 Bytes = 1,125,899,906,842,624 Bytes
Exa Bytes EB 2^60 Bytes = 1,152,921,504,606,846,976 Bytes
Zetta Bytes ZB 2^70 Bytes = 1,180,591,620,717,411,303,424 Bytes
Yotta Bytes YB 2^80 Bytes = 1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 Bytes
