About Mebibytes

A mebibyte (MiB) = 2²⁰ = 1,048,576 bytes (IEC 80000-13). Windows/older macOS report sizes in MiB but label them 'MB'. Linux malloc and kernel pages are power-of-2 aligned. Docker images: Alpine base 5 MiB; Ubuntu 72 MiB. Linux kernel bzImage 8-12 MiB. NVIDIA RTX 4090: 24 GiB GDDR6X in 2-GiB binary chunks. 1 MiB = 1,048,576 bytes = 1,024 KiB.

About Petabytes

A petabyte (PB) = 10¹⁵ bytes (SI). Major platforms operate at PB scale: Meta ingests > 4 PB/day; YouTube adds several PB of video content daily. CERN Run 3 produced ≈ 90 PB in 2022. 1,000-genome cohort (WGS at 30×) ≈ 0.4 PB. English Wikipedia with media ≈ 10 PB. A rack of Blu-ray cold storage (Facebook Project Amber) holds 1 PB. 1 PB = 10¹⁵ bytes = 1,000 TB.
