1 bit (b)

1 byte (B) = 8 bits

1 Kilobyte (K / KB) = 2^10 bytes = 1,024 bytes

1 Megabyte (M / MB) = 2^20 bytes = 1,048,576 bytes

1 Gigabyte (G / GB) = 2^30 bytes = 1,073,741,824 bytes

1 Terabyte (T / TB) = 2^40 bytes = 1,099,511,627,776 bytes

1 Petabyte (P / PB) = 2^50 bytes = 1,125,899,906,842,624 bytes

1 Exabyte (E / EB) = 2^60 bytes = 1,152,921,504,606.846,976 bytes

1 Zettabyte (Z / ZB) = 2^70 bytes = 1,180,591,620,717,411,303,424 bytes

1 Yottabyte (Y / YB) = 2^80 bytes = 1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 bytes

1 Nonabyte (N / NB) = 2^90 bytes = 1,237,940,039,285,380,274,899,124,224 bytes

There you go

:rolleyes: Any number, but zero can have a 'square', if you use whole numbers with fractions.

just wondering why you use the "roll eyes" smiley in 90% of posts you make on neowin? you use it even when its not needed.. is it habit or what?

friendly question :)

I think some of you are using powers in base ten with measurments made in base two

and thats where all the confusion is coming from.

What are confused about? The answer has been posted a couple of times in the thread.

Unless we're wrong I think we have it :)

What? You're saying 0 doesn't have a square? 0^2 = 0 and 0^.5 = 0

Hell, 0^anythingpositive = 0 :rolleyes:

You got it all wrong.

Here is how it works:

One kilobyte equals 2 to the 10th power, or 1,024 bytes.

One megabyte equals 2 to the 20th power, or 1,048,576 bytes.

One gigabyte equals 2 to the 30th power, or 1,073,741,824 bytes.

One terabyte equals 2 to the 40th power, or 1,099511,627,776 bytes.

One petabyte equals 2 to the 50th power, or 1,125,899,906,842,624 bytes.

One exabyte equals 2 to the 60th power, or 1,152,921,504,606,846,976 bytes.

One zettabyte equals 2 to the 70th power, or 1,180,591,620,717,411,303,424 bytes.

One yottabyte equals 2 to the 80th power, or 1,208,925,819,614,629,174,706,176 bytes.

Yay!!!! It took a while but someone got it right!!!!
