Megabytes per second (MB/s)

Conversion Formula

MB/s = Mibit/s × 0.131072

About Mebibits per second

Mebibit per second (Mibit/s) = 2²⁰ = 1,048,576 bit/s (IEC 80000-13). Used in FPGA-to-memory interface specs and JEDEC memory bus timing documents where bit rates are derived from 2ⁿ clock frequencies. A 100 MHz 8-bit parallel bus = 800 Mibit/s. Contrasted with Mbit/s (= 10⁶ bit/s). 1 Mibit/s = 1,048,576 bit/s ≈ 131 KB/s.

About Megabytes per second

Megabyte per second (MB/s) = 10⁶ B/s (SI). Standard for storage benchmarks and USB speeds. NVMe SSDs: Samsung 990 Pro (PCIe 4.0) = 7,450 MB/s; PCIe 5.0 drives = 10,000 MB/s; SATA HDD = 80-220 MB/s. USB 3.2 Gen 1 = 625 MB/s; USB4 Gen 3 = 5,000 MB/s. Memory: DDR5-4800 dual-channel = 76,800 MB/s. A 4K RAW cinema camera generates ≈1,000 MB/s. 1 MB/s = 10⁶ B/s = 8 Mbit/s.
