1000 or 1024
When referring to ACTUAL SPACE on a storage device or in memory, each "unit" is 1024 of the previous unit.
1024 bytes = kilobyte
1024 kilobytes = megabyte
1024 megabytes = gigabyte
1024 gigabytes = terabyte
etc.
When selling storage devices (such as CDs or USB drives), the packaging will use a 1000 rule (same as above, but with 1000 instead of 1024), thus giving the appearance of having slightly more capacity. This is considered acceptable because in standard english, the prefixes kilo-, mega-, giga-, use the "1000 rule."
Computers use 1024 because it is the perfect power of 2 closest to 1000. Using a power of 2 is important because computers are binary (base 2) systems.
To help make this difference less ambiguous, a new set of prefixes was proposed to represent powers of 1024 (rather than 1000). They are kibi-, mebi-, gibi-, tebi-, etc.

That's also called a sextilion.

What is larger than a Gega Bite?
A terabyte (TB) is equal to 1000 gigabytes (GB)
What is bigger a gigabyte or a kilobyte?
Yes. There are 1,048,676 kb in a gigabyte.
What unit of measurement is RAM capacity measured in?
Megabytes (Mb), Gigabytes (Gb) and Terabytes (Tb) are common words to describe computer storage. A pen-drive (USB device) could store as little as 32Mb of data - a typical DVD can store 4.7Gb, and modern hard-drives are being produced that can hold a 10Tb or more !
How much memory is 1 tb?
1,024 gigabytesOn a hard drive, a terabyte, abbreviated TB, is 1012 = 1,000,000,000,000 bytes of information. That is 1,024 times a gigabyte (GB) or 1,048,576 times a megabyte (MB), which is a million million bytes.Among other things, a computer often uses one byte of space, in memory or on disk or tape, to represent one character (such as "c" or "&").To think practically how much information a terabyte of disk space holds, let's assume we're storing text from magazine pages on a computer that does use one byte per character. At an average 5,000 characters per page, 1TB of disk space could hold 220 million pages of text!Remember when 3.5" floppy diskettes were all the rage ?It will take 728,178 of those disks to equal the storage capacity of a 1,024 gigabyte hard drive.
What is larger kilobyte megabyte terabyte or gigabyte?
A bit is a binary digit. A bit has only two states, off or on. We denote these states with the numeric symbols 0 and 1. A byte is a group of bits, typically 8 bits in length. A byte is also the smallest unit of storage in a computer's memory, each of which has a unique address. A kilobyte (KB) is 2^10 bytes which is 1,024 bytes. A megabyte (MB) is 2^20 bytes which is 1,048,576 bytes or 1,024 KB. A gigabyte (GB) is 2^30 bytes which is 1,073,741,824 bytes or 1,024 MB. A terabyte (TB) is 2^40 bytes which is 1,099,511,627,776 bytes or 1,024 GB. Source: JEDEC memory standards
How many terabyte in 1000 gigabyte?
One terabyte = 1024 gigabyte
How many gigabytes will a Terabyte contain?
1 Terabyte = 1024 gigabytes.
What is the unit more than the gegabyte?
The next measurement in the series would be the terabyte. A terabyte is equal to 1024 gigabytes.
How many gigabytes are there in a turbo gigabyte?
There no such thing as a turbo gigabyte. If you mean Terabyte there are 1024 gigbytes in 1 terabyte
How many gigabytes are in a terrabyte?
There are, by the different standards, either 1000 or 1024 gigabytes in a terabyte.

500 gigabytes
1 terabite is how many gigabite?
1 terabyte = 1000 gigabytes (gigabytes not gigabites) actually it's 1 terabyte = 1024 gigabytes
How many terabyte is 512MB?
There are 1000 gigabytes in one terabyte Therefore 512mb is 512/1000 of a gigabyte, or 51.2% of a terabyte. To understand the significance of the question you might need to understand why 512MB is relevant. It is relevant because digital computing relies on the binary number system.
How many gb in a terabit?
In a terabyte, there are about 1024 gigabytes. In a gigabyte, there are about 1024 megabytes.
How many megabytes is in 1.38Gigabytes?
There are 1,380 megabytes in 1.38 gigabytes. One gigabyte is the equivalent of 1,000 megabytes. One terabyte is equal to 1,000 gigabytes or one million megabytes.
Is terabyte bigger then Gigabyte?
Yes. 1000 gigabytes is 1 terabyte.
Who many gigabyte make up terabyte?
Probably 1024
