What is the Difference Between a Bit and a Byte?

8 bits equals one Byte.

1024 bytes equals one KiloByte (KB)

1024 KiloBytes equals one MegaByte (MB)

1024 MegaBytes equals one GigaByte (GB)

sometimes people use 1000 instead of 1024, so numbers sometimes get screwy.

a bit is always represented by a small "b", a Byte is always represented by a large "B".

it's become common practice to use bits in reference to interface speeds and bytes in reference to memory and storage capacities.
