One megabyte in computer-storage-terms is considered to be 2^20 bytes. Or, you could think of it as 1024 * 1024 bytes. Or, you can think of it as 1,048,576 bytes.
You see, computers are binary devices. They work by transistors being in either the 1 or 0 position, (on or off.) Therefore, the units of measurement in computer hardware are base-2. (a.k.a. binary). These little ones and zeros are called bits. 8 ones and zeros make a byte.
The common unit of size in a computer is 1 byte. So, 1024 bytes is a kilobyte, or 1 k. Then 1024 k is a mb, or 1,048,576 bytes, which is what your computer's storage device cares about. When we talk about 1mb, we are talking about data memory. We use computers to perform calculations and store data on some device, like a CD or a flash drive, or a hard drive or RAM (random access memory.)
If you're simply talking in layman's terms... you could think of 1mb as a 1024 x 768 picture from a digital camera. It really depends on your resolution. My 6 megapixel camera on hi-resolution mode stores a big picture in 2.6 to 3 mb. If I tell the camera to use less resolution and make the pictures smaller, for example 640 x 480, then I can get a couple pictures in 1 mb.
So, a normal CD is 700 mb. That's good for about 80 minutes of music, in .cda format. In those terms, 1mb is 6.857 seconds of music.
The standard for computers is to store a character in 1 byte. Therefore, 1mb is a text file with 1,048,576 characters.
1 Gigabyte is 1000 Megabytes 1 Megabyte is 1000 Kilobytes 1 Kilobyte is 1000 Bytes and 1 Byte is 8 bits. Although computers count 1 Gigabyte as 1024 Megabytes Which is why you'll find hard-drives will nearly always be smaller than advertised as the companies advertise using 1000 Megabytes per gig as apposed to 1024.
1 MB is equal to 1000 text-only emails, 2 minutes of an MP3 file, 25 page Word document, 20 slide basic PowerPoint presentation, 30 emails with one page Word attachment, and 25 internet pages.
a Megabyte (now shortened to MiB) is equivaltent to 1076 bytes.
1 Mb = 210 Kb
= 210 * 210 bytes
1 MB
5 megabytes is much smaller than 1 terabyte (about 20,000 times smaller).
Processor or Virtual Storage -> 1024 Megabytes = 1 Gigabyte Disk Storage -> 1000 Megabytes = 1 Gigabyte
250 mb = 250 millibytes 250 mb is equivalent to .250 of a single byte.
One gigabyte (GB) is 1,024 megabytes (MB) or 10,48,576 kilobytes (KB). In honesty, that's very low storage for a computer. However on most portable devices it is an average amount of storage space.
mg is not a unit of storage. If you mean MB, 1 TB is a bit over a million MB.
750 megabytes
1.44 Megabytes
There are 292.96875 Megabyte in a 300,000 Kilobyte storage.
1 GB (gigabyte) is larger than 1 MB (megabyte). There are a thousand megabytes in a gigabyte.
1024 (thousand) MB1,000 KiloBytes = 1 MegaByte1,000 MegaBytes = 1 GigaByte1,000 GigaBytes = 1 TeraByte
Now a days, different CD i.e. compact disc with different capacities are now available in the market. Usually the storage capacity of a CD is 700 MB.
