KB/MB/GB/TB Converter

Convert between KB, MB, GB, and TB - decimal and binary conventions clearly separated, with the exact multiplier shown.

Enter a value and choose the source/target unit among KB, MB, GB, and TB - this tool shows the exact multiplier used for the conversion.

Switching the convention changes every result - this tool never silently mixes decimal (1000-based) and binary (1024-based) multiples within one calculation.

For bit-level or byte-level conversions specifically, see the Byte Converter or Bits to Bytes Converter.

Decimal vs. Binary - Which Applies?

1 MB can mean either 1,000,000 bytes (decimal, SI convention - used by storage manufacturers and most modern OS file managers) or 1,048,576 bytes (binary, technically 1 MiB) - this tool lets you choose explicitly rather than guessing, since the two conventions genuinely differ by about 5% at the MB scale and more at larger scales.

How to Use It

  1. Enter a value and its current unit (KB, MB, GB, or TB).
  2. Choose decimal or binary convention.
  3. Select the target unit - the exact multiplier used is shown alongside the result.

Limitations

This is pure unit conversion arithmetic - it doesn't inspect any actual file or report real-world storage capacity, only the numbers you provide.
