Yet, the megabyte is still been widely used for decimal and binary systems. This proposal was adopted by the IEEE, EU, ISO and NIST by the end of 2009. In 1998, the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) proposed standards of binary prefixes requiring the use of megabyte to strictly denote 1000 2 (10 6) bytes and mebibyte to denote 1024 2 (2 20) bytes. Bytes to MB (Megabyte)įrom the above definition of MB, you can know that 1MB is 1,000,000 (10 6) bytes in the decimal system while 1048576 (2 20) bytes in the binary system. Geopbyte – one geopbyte is equal to 10 30 bytes. One yottabyte is equal to 10 24 bytes and it’s the size of the entire World Wide Web.īrontobyte – Brontobyte is a unit that refers to 10 15 - 10 27 bytes, usually 10 27 bytes. 1 zettabyte is equal to 10 21 bytes and the storage space of 250 billion DVDs. 5 exabytes is the amount of all the words ever spoken by mankind and the total data help by Google is about 15 EB.
And, the amount of data processed by Google daily is 20 petabytes.ĮB – Exabyte.
You need 500 million floppy disks to save 1 petabyte data. A petabyte is equal to approximately a trillion (10 15) bytes.
