Decimal vs binary: KB, MB and GB use powers of 1,000 (SI), while KiB, MiB and GiB use powers of 1,024. Storage makers use decimal units; many operating systems and memory sizes use binary ones, which is why a "500 GB" drive shows less space.
About the units
- Gibibyte (GiB)
- 1,073,741,824 bytes (2^30), the binary unit used for RAM and by some operating systems.
- Kibibyte (KiB)
- 1,024 bytes (2^10), the binary unit defined by the IEC in 1998.
