--> UNDERSTANDING GIGABYTES
When people buy computers, they're told they're getting a hard drive of
a certain size--80 gigabytes, perhaps. But when they check the computer
they find only 74GB. Where did the other 6GB go?

This is the difference between marketing and math. As far as marketers
are concerned, 80 billion bytes is 80GB. But it's not. A gigabyte is
1.074 billion bytes (2 to the power of 30). If you divide 80 by 1.074,
you'll get 74.6. That's the true number of gigabytes.

These round numbers are fairly easy to remember. A kilobyte is 2 to
the power of 10 (or 2^10), a megabyte is 2^20, and a terabyte (1.0995
trillion bytes!) is 2^40.

8 characters makes one Byte.

1024 bytes=1 KB (Kilobyte)

1024 KB = 1 Mb (Megabyte)

1024 MB = 1 GB (Gigabyte)

1024 GB = 1 TB (Terabyte)

8 bits = 1 byte
1024 bytes = 1 kilobyte [KB]
1024 KiloBytes = 1MegaByte [MB]
1024MegaBytes = 1GigaByte [GB]
1024GigaBytes = 1TerraByte [TB]

etc...
the magical number is 1024

1,000 megabytes equal one gig, a thousand gigs equal one terabyte, then it just goes up from their
