File Size Converter
Compare decimal and binary units.
HOW IT WORKS
Decimal and binary units
The converter divides bytes by powers of 1000 for kB/MB/GB and powers of 1024 for KiB/MiB/GiB.
Limits to keep in mind
Displayed values are rounded; storage vendors and operating systems may use different unit labels.
A PRACTICAL WORKFLOW
Use the result carefully.
01Enter a byte value to compare decimal and binary file units.
02Run the utility and inspect the complete output.
03Use the byte value for exact comparisons and note which unit convention a limit uses.
COMMON QUESTION
Why do drive sizes look smaller in some systems?
Manufacturers commonly use decimal units while some software reports binary units.
