About Kibibytes

A kibibyte (KiB) = 2¹⁰ = 1,024 bytes (IEC 80000-13) - the binary kilobyte used by OS memory management. Linux/Windows page size = 4 KiB (4,096 bytes); default NTFS/ext4/APFS cluster size = 4 KiB. CPU L1-D cache: 16-64 KiB. Arduino AVR flash: 2-32 KiB. Windows labels KiB as 'KB'. 1 KiB = 1,024 bytes = 8,192 bits.

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.
