Conversion Formula
Mbit/s = MB/s × 8
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 Megabits per second
Megabit per second (Mbit/s) = 10⁶ bit/s (SI). Standard consumer broadband unit: ADSL2+ up to 24 Mbit/s; VDSL2 up to 100 Mbit/s; Wi-Fi 6 up to 9,608 Mbit/s; Gigabit Ethernet = 1,000 Mbit/s. Streaming: Netflix 1080p = 5 Mbit/s; 4K HDR = 15-25 Mbit/s; 4K Blu-ray up to 128 Mbit/s. ISP 100 Mbit/s ≈ 12.5 MB/s download. 1 Mbit/s = 10⁶ bit/s = 125 KB/s.
