About this conversion

Data conversions explain why a 1 TB drive shows less space on your computer and help compare mobile plans sold in gigabytes.

A conversion table is handy for common values, but a calculator is faster and avoids interpolation errors for anything in between.

Writing the units next to every number while you work is the simplest way to avoid mistakes. If the units do not cancel to leave the one you want, the calculation is set up wrongly.
