About Kilobits
A kilobit (kbit) = 1,000 bits (SI). Standard unit for connection speeds: dial-up 9.6-56 kbit/s; ISDN 64-128 kbit/s; early ADSL 256 kbit/s. VoIP codecs: G.711 = 64 kbit/s; Opus (WhatsApp, Discord) = 6-510 kbit/s adaptive. Bluetooth LE up to 1,000 kbit/s; Zigbee/Z-Wave 20-250 kbit/s. 'kbit/s' = strictly decimal 1,000 bits/s (ITU/IEEE). 1 kbit = 1,000 bits = 125 bytes.
About Yobibytes
A yobibyte (YiB) = 2⁸⁰ bytes ≈ 1.21 × 10²⁴ bytes (IEC 80000-13) - the largest named binary byte unit (2008 edition); 2022 revision added 'ronbi' (Ri, 2⁹⁰) and 'quetti' (Qi, 2¹⁰⁰). At HAMR areal density (10 Tbit/inch² projected by 2030), 1 YiB would require ≈ 6.24 million km² of magnetic platter surface - modestly exceeding the area of Australia. World total storage in 2023 ≈ 0.00848 YiB. 1 YiB = 2⁸⁰ bytes = 1,024 ZiB.
