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 Kibibits per second

Kibibit per second (Kibit/s) = 2¹⁰ = 1,024 bit/s (IEC 80000-13). The binary-precise counterpart to kbit/s for contexts with power-of-2 bus widths. FPGA serial transceivers are clocked at exact powers of 2; embedded UART baud rates sometimes use 1,024-baud increments. Contrasted with kbit/s (= 1,000 bit/s) in ITU/IEEE standards. 1 Kibit/s = 1,024 bit/s = 128 B/s.
