About these units
The megabyte (MB) is a metric unit of data storage, equal to 1,000,000 bytes.
The megabit (Mb) is a metric unit of data storage, equal to 125,000 bytes.
Going the other way, 1 megabit = 0.125 megabytes. Storage has two competing definitions: drive makers count a gigabyte as 1,000,000,000 bytes, while operating systems often show gibibytes of 1,073,741,824 bytes. That 7% gap is why a '1 TB' drive shows up as 931 GB. Both families are included below so you can compare them directly.
