Megabyte

A megabyte is a common unit of storage in digital devices that refers to the amount of information that can be stored — roughly 1 million bytes in the case of a MB. All digital information is expressed as a series of 1s and 0s known as bits. Eight bits combine to make a byte, and the more available bytes a storage medium holds, the more information and storage capacity the device has whether it be a hard drive, RAM, memory cache or other method of digital storage.

  • 1 Bit = either a 1 or a 0 (which makes up binary code)
  • 1 Byte (b) = 8 bits
  • 1 Kilobyte (KB) = roughly 1 thousand bytes.
  • 1 Megabyte (MB) = roughly 1 million bytes.
  • 1 Gigabyte (GB) = roughly 1 billion bytes.
  • 1 Terabyte (TB) = roughly 1 trillion bytes.
