Convert 500 GB to TB or 25 MB to bytes.
Convert digital storage between bytes, kilobytes, megabytes, gigabytes and terabytes using decimal units. It is designed for quick estimates and everyday problem solving. When a calculation affects a contract, tax filing, medical decision or other high-stakes situation, verify the result with the appropriate professional or authoritative source.
The calculator uses decimal SI-style storage units: 1 KB = 1,000 bytes, 1 MB = 1,000,000 bytes, 1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes and 1 TB = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes. This is the convention commonly used by drive manufacturers and many network/storage specifications.
Binary units such as KiB, MiB and GiB are based on powers of 1,024 and are not the same as the KB, MB and GB values used on this page. For example, 500 GB equals 0.5 TB using decimal units, while 25 MB equals 25,000,000 bytes. Check which convention a software program or device uses when matching reported capacities.
One decimal gigabyte equals 1,000 megabytes; the converter uses decimal units (base 1,000).
Decimal GB is different from binary GiB, which is based on powers of 1,024.
Operating systems and device makers may report storage capacities using different conventions.
