Megabytes per second (MB/s)
Kibibits per second (Kibit/s)

Conversion Formula

Kibit/s = MB/s × 7812.5

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 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.
