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 Terabytes

A terabyte (TB) = 10¹² bytes (SI). Consumer HDDs: 1-22 TB; consumer NVMe SSDs: 1-8 TB. LTO-9 tape: 18 TB/cartridge; enterprise libraries: hundreds of petabytes. Whole genome sequencing: Illumina NovaSeq 6000 run ≈ 6 TB raw FASTQ. JWST downlinks ≈ 57 GB/day (≈20 TB/year). 4K NVR (64 cameras) ≈ 1 TB/day. 1 TB = 10¹² bytes = 1,000 GB.
