FAQ
How many gigabytes are in a terabyte?
This converter uses the binary terabyte: 1 TB = 1,024 GB = 2¹⁰ GB, the scale an operating system reports. Drive vendors print the decimal one on the box, where 1 TB = 1,000 GB, and IEC 80000-13 names the binary units tebibyte (TiB) and gibibyte (GiB).
What is the formula to convert gigabytes to terabytes?
Divide the number of gigabytes by 1,024: TB = GB ÷ 1,024. For example, 1,024 GB ÷ 1,024 = 1 TB, 512 GB = 0.5 TB and 2,048 GB = 2 TB. The reverse conversion multiplies terabytes by 1,024.
Why does a 1 TB drive show about 931 GB?
The vendor sells 1 TB as 1,000,000,000,000 bytes, while the operating system divides by 1,024 three times: 10¹² ÷ 1024³ ≈ 931.32 GB. Nothing is missing from the disk — the same bytes are simply measured on a different scale.
