About Nibbles
A nibble is exactly 4 bits = half a byte, representing 2⁴ = 16 values - one hexadecimal digit (0-F). Used in BCD encoding (each decimal digit = 1 nibble; 2 nibbles per byte packs two BCD digits), financial/mainframe packed-decimal formats, and CSS hex colours (#RRGGBB = 2 nibbles per channel). 4-bit processors (Intel 4004, TI TMS1000) processed one nibble per cycle. 1 nibble = 4 bits = 0.5 bytes.
About Gigabytes
A gigabyte (GB) = 10⁹ bytes (SI). All consumer HDDs, SSDs, SD cards, USB drives, and smartphones advertise in GB. Media sizes: 4K Blu-ray 66-100 GB; 4K Netflix film 10-15 GB; modern AAA PC game 50-200 GB; Google Maps offline country data 5-30 GB. The IBM 350 RAMAC (1956) stored 0.00000375 GB; a Seagate Exos 20 TB holds 20,000 GB - 5.3-million-fold increase in 66 years. 1 GB = 10⁹ bytes = 1,000 MB.
