Conversion Formula
GiB = Ebit × 116415321.8
About Exabits
An exabit (Ebit) = 10¹⁸ bits (SI). Global IP traffic ≈ 4.8 exabytes/month in 2022 = ≈38.4 Ebit/month. Netflix at peak consumes ≈15% of North American bandwidth, accumulating Ebits/year. All installed cross-Atlantic cable capacity ≈ 2,000 Tbit/s in 2024; 1 Ebit transits in ≈ 500 s at full utilisation. The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) will generate ≈ 7,200 Ebit/year of reduced data. 1 Ebit = 10¹⁸ bits = 125 PB.
About Gibibytes
A gibibyte (GiB) = 2³⁰ = 1,073,741,824 bytes (IEC 80000-13). The source of the 'storage discrepancy': a '500 GB' drive contains 500×10⁹ bytes ≈ 465.66 GiB as shown by Windows. RAM is manufactured in exact powers of 2: 4/8/16/32/64 GiB. GPU VRAM: RTX 4090 = 24 GiB; H100 = 80 GiB; MI300X = 192 GiB HBM3. Kubernetes memory limits use Gi suffixes. 1 GiB = 2³⁰ bytes = 1,024 MiB.
