How many GB in a TB
The conversion of GB to TB involves two data storage metrics used in the world of technology. How many gigabytes are in one terabyte? What is the meaning of a terabyte or a gigabyte? These are some of the common questions people ask before purchasing a memory card, a hard drive or other devices. All these measurement units are convertible from one to another although they might be confusing at first glance.
How many Gigabytes in a Terabyte?
1 terabyte is made up of 1024 gigabytes (binary)
1 TB = 210 GB in base 2
1 terabyte is made up of 1000 gigabytes (decimal)
1 TB = 103 GB in base 10 (SI)
A terabyte (TB) is greater than a gigabyte (GB) – It is 1000 times bigger than a gigabyte.
How to convert terabytes to Gigabytes in SI
1 terabyte = 10004 bytes
Since 1GB = 10003, it means that 1 byte = 1000-3 gigabytes
1 Terabyte = 10004 x 1000-3 GB
1 Terabyte = 10001 Gigabytes
1 Terabyte = 1000 Gigabytes
How to convert terabytes to gigabytes in base 2
1 Terabyte = 240 bytes
1 Terabyte = 10244 bytes
1 byte = 1024-3 GB
1 Terabyte = 10244 x 1024-3 GB
1 Terabyte = 10241 Gigabytes
1 Terabyte = 210 Gigabytes
1 Terabyte = 1024 Gigabytes
