Understanding Data Units

Data Storage Hierarchy Chart

Data storage units can be confusing because there are two standards: Decimal (base 10) and Binary (base 2).

1. Megabytes (MB) to Gigabytes (GB)

In the decimal system (common for marketing storage media), 1 GB = 1000 MB. In the binary system (used by Windows), 1 GiB = 1024 MiB.

GB = MB / 1000

Example 1: Convert 5000 MB to GB
  • Formula: 5000 / 1000
  • Result: 5 GB
Example 2: Convert 2500 MB to GB
  • Formula: 2500 / 1000
  • Result: 2.5 GB

2. Terabytes to Gigabytes

1 Terabyte (TB) is equal to 1000 Gigabytes (GB).

GB = TB × 1000

Example 1: Convert 2 TB to GB
  • Formula: 2 × 1000
  • Result: 2000 GB
Example 2: Convert 0.5 TB to GB
  • Formula: 0.5 × 1000
  • Result: 500 GB
