SI units for specific heat capacity is joule per kilogram kelvin (J/kg,K).
The BTU or British Thermal Unit The unit for the amount of energy transferred by heat in the International System of Units SI is the joule (J), though the British Thermal Unit and the calorie are still occasionally used in the United States. The unit for the rate of heat transfer is the watt (W = J/s).
calories per gram degree Celsius (cal/g.C)
The most common units of heat are the Calorie, Joule and BTU (British thermal unit) heat is a form of energy. hence, the S.I. unit of heat is joule(J).
In the International System of Units (SI) it is a Joule.

specifc heat is measured by units
Specific heat is the heat capacity divided by the heat capacity of water, which makes it dimensionless. To obtain molar heat capacity from specific heat for a material of interest, simply multiply the specific heat by the heat capacity of water per gram [1 cal/(g*C)]and multiply by the molecular weight of the substance of interest. For example, to obtain the molar heat capacity of iron Specific heat of iron = 0.15 (note there are no units) Molar heat capacity of iron = 0.15*1 cal/(g*C)*55.85 g /gmole = 8.378 cal/(gmole*C)
specific heat capacity
If a body of water has a high heat capacity, it can store more thermal energy making it a good heat sink.

"SI unit" and "metric unit" basically means the same. The only metric system used nowadays is the SI. For a specific object, the heat capacity is measured in J/K. To compare different materials, it is of interest to specify the heat capacity PER KILOGRAM, so the units are J / (K times kg). It is also possible to specify heat capacity in J / (K times mole). This would also be SI units.
There is no relationship between units of mass and either length of capacity. Units of capacity are the cubed units of length.

The heat capacity depends on the mass of a material and is expressed in j/K.The specific heat capacity not depends on the mass of a material and is expressed in j/mol.K.
