Memory and storage capacity conventions
Memory capacities are specified using binary prefixes:
• KiB = 2
10
bytes
• MiB = 2
20
bytes
• GiB = 2
30
bytes
• TiB = 2
40
bytes
Storage capacities are specified using SI prefixes:
• KB = 10
3
bytes
• MB = 10
6
bytes
• GB = 10
9
bytes
• TB = 10
12
bytes
Older, and other, documentation may use SI prefixes for binary values.
Actual available memory capacity and actual formatted storage capacity for devices are less than
specified values.
