A byte is a unit used to measure data storage.
Bytes can be abbreviated as B; for example, 1 byte can be written as 1 B.
You can use our binary calculator to convert a number of bits to other number systems such as hex or decimal.
How Much Is a Byte?
A byte is a group of eight binary digits or bits. Most computers use one 8-bit byte as the smallest size of addressable memory.
Multiples of bytes are represented using SI prefixes such as kilo, mega, giga, or tera.
How to Convert Bytes
To convert bytes to another unit of data storage, you need to multiply the value by a conversion factor. A conversion factor is a numerical value used to change the units of a measurement without changing the value.[1]
You can find the conversion factors for bytes in the conversion table below.
Then, multiply the data storage measurement by the conversion factor to find the equivalent value in the desired unit of measurement.
bytes × conversion factor = result
You can also use a calculator, such as one of the converters below, for the conversion.
