Megabytes per second (MB/s)
Petabits per second (Pbit/s)

Conversion Formula

Pbit/s = MB/s × 8.000000000e-9

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 Petabits per second

Petabit per second (Pbit/s) = 10¹⁵ bit/s (SI). Research-scale only: NTT (2024) achieved 1.53 Pbit/s over a single fibre using space + wavelength division multiplexing. The combined peak of the world's largest internet exchange points (DE-CIX, AMS-IX) is multi-Tbit/s. Global IP traffic ≈ 1.8 Pbit/s sustained average in 2030 forecast. 1 Pbit/s = 10¹⁵ bit/s = 125 TB/s.
