Common storage capacity conversions

GB to TB:
TB = GB ÷ 1,000

TB to GB:
GB = TB × 1,000

GiB to TiB:
TiB = GiB ÷ 1,024

TB to bytes:
bytes = TB × 1,000,000,000,000

Where storage capacity conversions are used

Storage capacity conversions are useful for phones, tablets, laptops, desktops, hard drives, SSDs, USB drives, memory cards, cloud storage plans, server storage, backups, video libraries, game libraries, and photo archives.

Use this converter when comparing device storage, available space, backup size, cloud plans, or decimal versus binary storage units.

What your storage capacity result means

Your result shows the entered storage capacity converted from the starting unit into the selected ending unit. The converter also shows reference values in bytes, MB, GB, TB, PB, MiB, GiB, TiB, and PiB.

Decimal units such as GB and TB are commonly used by storage manufacturers. Binary units such as GiB and TiB are often used by operating systems and technical storage tools. This is why a drive may show less usable storage than the advertised number.

Frequently asked questions

How many GB are in 1 TB?

In decimal storage, 1 TB equals 1,000 GB. In binary storage, 1 TiB equals 1,024 GiB.

How many MB are in 1 GB?

In decimal storage, 1 GB equals 1,000 MB. In binary storage, 1 GiB equals 1,024 MiB.

What is the difference between GB and GiB?

GB is a decimal unit equal to 1,000,000,000 bytes. GiB is a binary unit equal to 1,073,741,824 bytes.

Why does my storage device show less space?

Storage manufacturers often use decimal units, while operating systems may display binary-based capacity. Formatting, reserved space, recovery partitions, and system files can also reduce available space.

What storage unit should I use?

Use GB for phones, tablets, laptops, and smaller drives. Use TB for larger drives, backups, game libraries, video files, and cloud storage plans.
