About Mebibytes per second

Mebibyte per second (MiB/s) = 2²⁰ = 1,048,576 B/s (IEC 80000-13). Used in Linux fio/dd benchmark output. Optical disc speeds: CD-ROM 1× = 150 KiB/s; 52× ≈ 7.62 MiB/s; Blu-ray 1× ≈ 4.39 MiB/s; 12× Blu-ray ≈ 52.73 MiB/s. SATA II effective throughput ≈ 286 MiB/s. microSD A1 spec = 10 MB/s ≈ 9.54 MiB/s. 1 MiB/s = 1,048,576 B/s = 8 Mibit/s.

About Bits per second

Bit per second (bit/s) is the fundamental SI data-rate unit - one binary digit transmitted per second. Shannon's channel capacity C = B log₂(1 + S/N) expresses maximum achievable bit/s. Early RS-232 serial links ran at 110-9,600 bit/s; GSM voice uses 13 kbit/s; a coin-flip entropy source produces 1 bit/s per flip. 1 bit/s = 0.125 B/s = 10⁻³ kbit/s.
