Digital Data Converter
Convert between bytes, KB, MB, GB, TB, and binary units
Conversion Formula
Target = Value × (From Ratio / To Ratio)
Digital data conversions use linear ratios. Target = Value × (Source Ratio / Target Ratio). To convert megabytes to gigabytes: multiply by 8,000,000 / 8,000,000,000.
Digital data conversion is essential for understanding file sizes, storage capacity, and bandwidth. Convert between bits, bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes, terabytes, petabytes, and binary prefixes (KiB, MiB, GiB, TiB).
Binary prefixes (KiB, MiB, GiB) use multiples of 1,024, while decimal prefixes (KB, MB, GB) use multiples of 1,000. This converter supports both systems.
