Key Points

A bit is the smallest unit of storage.
A bit stores just a 0 or 1.
Computers are designed to store data and execute instructions in bit multiples called bytes.
One nibble is equal to 4 bits.


Computer storage and memory are often measured in megabytes (MB) and gigabytes (GB).

1 kilobyte (KB) = 1024 bytes
1 megabyte (MB) = 1024 kilobytes
1 gigabyte (GB) = 1024 megabytes
1 terabyte (TB) = 1024 gigabytes
1 petabyte (PB) = 1024 terabytes
