What is the Storage & File Size Calculator?

This converter translates a size between decimal SI units (powers of 1000) and binary IEC units (powers of 1024), the source of the classic “missing gigabytes” confusion.

How to use it

  1. 1Enter a value and pick its unit.
  2. 2Read the equivalent in every other unit.

How it works

Everything is normalized to bytes. Decimal units multiply by 1000ⁿ; binary units multiply by 1024ⁿ. A “1 TB” drive holds 1,000,000,000,000 bytes ≈ 931 GiB.

Limitations & notes

  • Rounding is applied for display; the byte value is exact.
