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.

About Gigabits per second

Gigabit per second (Gbit/s) = 10⁹ bit/s (SI). Enterprise/data-centre standard: 1/10/25/100/400 Gbit/s Ethernet all deployed. Storage: SATA III = 6 Gbit/s; PCIe 4.0 ×4 = 64 Gbit/s; PCIe 5.0 ×4 = 128 Gbit/s. Display: HDMI 2.1 = 48 Gbit/s; DisplayPort 2.1 = 80 Gbit/s. Memory: DDR5-4800 dual-channel = 76.8 Gbit/s; H100 HBM3 = 26.8 Tbit/s. 1 Gbit/s = 10⁹ bit/s = 125 MB/s.
